Rosa: Davvero (Really)? Cento di questi giorni (Happy birthday). That's wonderful!
Ezio: Is it? It's been over ten years since I watched my father and brothers die. Ten years hunting the men responsible. I'm so close to the end now, but....no closer to understand what any of it was for.
Rosa: You may not see it, Ezio, but it's better here now because of the things you've done. Basta (Enough). Look, here. I have a birthday present for you. It's L'Arsenale's shipping manifest, from the day the boat left.
Ezio: The boat to Cyprus? You're serious?
Rosa: And guess when it's scheduled to return? Tomorrow.
Leonardo: Just now. I need to talk to you. Right away.
Rosa: Go on. Have fun, boys.
Ezio: This better be good.
Leonardo: Oh, it is! It is! Walk with me. Stay close.
Ezio and Leonardo walk through Venice.
Leonardo: These last two codex pages...I was studying the copies. I don't know why I never saw it before! But when put together, I realized the markings on the back clarify into words. Here: "The Prophet will appear when the second piece is brought to the floating city."
Ezio: Prophet...? "Only the prophet may open it....two Pieces of Eden..."
Leonardo: What are you saying? Ezio, what is this?
Ezio: We've known each other a long time, Leonardo. If I can't trust you, there is nobody. My uncle Mario spoke of it long ago. A prophecy hidden in the Codex.....leading to an ancient vault that holds something....very powerful.
Leonardo: Grandioso (How grand). But, if you took these pages from the Barbarigo, then maybe they know about this vault too. That's not good.
Ezio: Wait...what if that's why they sent the ship to Cyprus? To find this...Piece of Eden...and bring it back to Venezia.
Leonardo: "When the second piece is brought to the floating city..."
Ezio: "...The Prophet will appear...only the prophet can open the vault..." My God! When my uncle told me about the Codex I was too young, too brash to imagine it was anything but an old man's fantasy! But now I see....the killing of Mocenigo....even the Medici....my father and brothers....it was all part of his plan! To find the vault...the Spaniard!
Leonardo: Rodrigo Borgia.
Ezio: The boat from Cyprus arrives tomorrow. I plan to be there to meet it.
Leonardo: Good luck, my friend.
They depart. The next day Ezio finds the boat returning from Cyprus and sees a guard carrying the Piece of Eden off the boat and giving it to another guard. He then sees his uncle watching as well.
Ezio: Uncle Mario...? Where are they taking it?File:Deliveryapple.jpgThe courier is given instructions.
Ezio follows the courier carrying the Piece of Eden. He reaches a checkpoint.
Guard: The Maestro awaits. He will not suffer mistakes. Package it correctly. Do it now.
Ezio: The Spaniard's here?! That changes things. If I can infiltrate this group...take the place of the courier....they'll lead me right to the figlio di puttana (son of a bitch).
Ezio assassinates the courier and takes his place.
Outcome
Ezio assassinates the courier and uses his armor as a disguise.
Ezio reaches for the shipping manifest.
