The View from Galata

The View from Galata is a memory in Assassin's Creed: Revelations.

Description

After learning how to use the Hookblade, Ezio Auditore and Yusuf Tazim race to the top of the Galata Tower.

Dialogue

Ezio and Yusuf on top of the Galata tower.

• Yusuf: The standard Ottoman hookblade has two parts, you see... the hook and the blade. So you can use one or the other. An elegant design.
  How about a bigger challenge?
• Ezio: Va bene. (Okay.) Let's go.

Ezio and Yusuf make their way to the top using their hookblades.

• Yusuf: Having fun?
  That's right. Let the hookblade do the work.
  Iste boyle. (There you go.) Throw yourself into it.

As they reach the top of the tower.

• Yusuf: Welcome to Konstantiniyye, Ezio. The crossroads of the world. Many generations of men have ruled this city, but they have never subdued her. She always bounces back.
• Ezio: It seems a fine place to call home.
• Yusuf: It is. Race you to the bottom?

They perform a leap of faith from the tower.

Outcome

• Ezio masters the new hookblade. He also agrees to help Yusuf Tazim defend two Assassins hideout in the city.

Trivia

• To achieve full synchronization, Ezio must climb the tower within 60 seconds.
