In Memory of the Curtains
In Memory of the Curtains was an altered representation of a fragmented genetic memory.
Intro
We must find Ezio and lead him to the Temple's entrance. But a group of Romulus' Adepts has surrounded him! And here comes the one behind this ambush, an old acquaintance, Lucrezia Borgia!
She will have to be quickly neutralized, otherwise she may galvanize the Followers and guards...
Objectives
- Escort Ezio and help him leave through a Fast Travel Station.
Optional Objective
- You can join Lucrezia Borgia and knock her out (no need to be incognito) by completing this objective. This immediately negates the buffs she gives to Enemies.
Debrief
Ezio is safe! We can now give him the Staff of Eden and help him reach the Temple's entrance.
Behind the scenes
The name of the memory is an indirect reference to the mission "The One Who Got Away" from the 2011 downloadable expansion The Da Vinci Disappearance for the 2010 video game Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood. In that sequence, Ezio pretended to seduce Lucrezia to learn the location of da Vinci's missing painting Annunciation, only to secretly tie her hands with a curtain rope once she revealed that she had the art.
