Preacher (Piagnone)
The Preacher is one of Girolamo Savonarola's nine Lieutenants during the Bonfire of the Vanities, one who followed Savonarola freely, without being manipulated by the Apple.
Challenge
The preacher spoke before a crowd of people with his back to a wall, surrounded by guards who were ready to alert him if any man moved away from the crowd or made any attempt at his life. To avoid being found by the guards, Ezio Auditore simply stood in the courtyard far from the preacher, and fired his hidden gun from a safe distance, easily killing another enemy of freedom and secular expression.
Final Words
Ezio: Your mind... I sense it is your own.
Preacher: Not all of us required deception to be convinced. I already believe. All I said is true.
Ezio: Nothing is true. Non è un compito facile il mio... Requiescat in pace. (This is not an easy thing I do... Rest in peace.)
