Road Trip
Road Trip is a memory in Assassin's Creed II.
Description
In this short and simple memory, Lorenzo de' Medici awards Ezio Auditore the Medici cape, a cape only given to those trusted by the House of Medici. He gives it to Ezio because he saved his life, similar to when Giovanni Auditore saved Lorenzo from drowning in the Arno river at the age of six.
Dialogue
- Ezio: The Pazzi are dead. Every one of them.
- Lorenzo: I must admit, I've never before believed I could desire the death of others so badly.
- Ezio: Nor I...
- Lorenzo: Ezio, thank you for the role you've played in keeping this dream of mine alive a little longer.
Ezio: L'onore e mio Signore (It's my honor)
Lorenzo: What will you do now figliolo (my boy)?
Ezio: There are still others I must hunt Signore. They're already digging their claws into the heart of Venezia.
Lorenzo: No! La bella Venezia... (Beautiful Venice...) Then that is where your journy must take you, Ezio. Before you leave us... I have something for you. A gift.
Lorenzo signals and a man appears with the Medici Cape.
Lorenzo: This cape identifies you as a friend of the Medici. As long as you wear it, the city gyards will be more tolerant of your actions. But be warned, it will not grant you immunity from the law.
Ezio nods and then takes the cape.
Lorenzo: Che la fortuna favorisca la tua lama (may fortune favour your blade).
Ezio then leaves the Palazzo Medici. He then arrives at Leonardo's workshop.
Ezio: Leonardo!? Leonardo!
Civillian: Mi dispiace (I am sorry), Messer, but he is gone. Maestro Leonardo was commissioned by a Venetian noble to paint some portraits. He paid for the Maestro to move his entire workshop to Venezia. It's quite an oppertunity!
Ezio: Grazie mile (Thanks alot) friend.
Outcome
Ezio is awarded the Medici cape, making him Incognito any time he is in Florence or Tuscany as long as he wears it.
