Mob Justice
This is a memory in Assassin's Creed II; it is a part of the corrupted Bonfire of the Vanities memory sequence.
Description
This memory shows the death of Savonarola. Ezio stands in the crowd and watches as the angry mob takes Savonarola to be burned at stake. He decides that no one deserves to die in such pain and kills Savonarola with his hidden blade. He then gives a speech to the mob.
Outcome
Savonarola is killed and Florence is completely free once more.
Ezio's Speech
"Twenty-two years ago, I stood where I stand now and watched my loved ones die, betrayed by those I had called friends. Vengeance clouded my mind. It would have consumed me, were it not for the wisdom of a few strangers, who taught me to look past my instincts. They never preached answers, but guided me to learn from myself. We don't need anyone to tell us what to do; not Savonarola, not the Medici. We are free to follow our own path. There are those who will take that freedom from us, and too many of you gladly give it. But it is our ability to choose whatever you think is true that makes us human... There is no book or teacher to give you the answers, to show you the way. Choose your own way! Do not follow me, or anyone else."
