The Impaler's Tomb

The Impaler's Tomb was a virtual representation of one of Ezio Auditore's genetic memories, relived by Desmond Miles in 2012 through the Animus.

Description

After reading a book about Vlad Tepes and his prison from Sofia Sartor's book shop, Ezio Auditore set out to find the prison within Constantinople's Constantine District.

After free-running through a series of obstacles within the prison, Ezio found the Templar's tomb and opened it, taking out the sword contained within, before leaving through a nearby gate.

Outcome

Ezio discovered and collected Vlad Tepes' Sword, after making his way through the prison that his tomb was kept in.

Trivia

• To achieve full synchronization, Ezio must finish the memory within 7 minutes.
• Vlad's skull in his sarcophagus has long canine fangs, hinting at the story of Vlad being a vampire.
• A rare glitch that allows the player to explore the Prison only occurs when the player quits during the mission. When this is done the player cannot continue, forcing Ezio to stay there, unable to obtain the Vlad's sword. The only way out is to delete that profile session.
