The Search for Cesare Borgia was an event after the Liberation of Rome in which the Assassins attempted to find out where Cesare was imprisoned, with the intention of assassinating him. [1]
Interrogations
Immediately after the imprisonment and escape of Cesare Borgia from the Castel Sant'Angelo, Cesare was sent to a different prison. His location was kept a secret and only Pope Julius II and King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella of Aragon and Castile were allowed to know of his location. Not even the Grand Master of the Assassin Order, Ezio Auditore da Firenze, was allowed to know his location.
Ezio and Machiavelli immediately started their search for the Templar Grand Master, tracking down and interrogating ex-lovers and other associates of the Borgia family. Their first destination was the house of Vannozza dei Cattanei, Cesare's mother. However, she was not able to give any new information to the Assassins, and they set off to interrogate Giulia Farnese, Rodrigo Borgia's last mistress. She too was unable to provide the Assassins with useful information. After that, Ezio and Machiavelli visited Charlotte d'Albret, Cesare's wife and the mother of one of his children. After a brief conversation, they left her to her own devices, still without a clue about Cesare's whereabouts.
