Ezio proves himself to be the Prophet when in his hands, the Apple and Staff open the Vault and Ezio steps inside. Inside the Vault, he finds not Pieces of Eden but an empty room and a holographic figure claiming to be Minerva. She claims that she brought Ezio to her so that almost six hundred years later, Desmond and his allies would hear her words through the Animus.
Minerva explains that she and her race were part of an advanced society that settled on Earth before a celestial event that destroyed most of the life on Earth. The remaining members of her species rebuilt the world as best they could and created humans in their own image. The two races lived side by side for a time before eventually coming to war. The humans seemingly won and those remaining of the advanced race sealed themselves in temples around the world, hoping to prevent the same disaster that had destroyed most of their kind from occurring once more. As Minerva finishes, she speaks to Desmond by name and informs him that she has done all she needs to and the rest remains up him and his allies.
Minerva explains that she and her race were part of an advanced society that settled on Earth and created humans in their own image to serve as a work force to help them. They also made them susceptable to the effects of the Pieces of Eden so They could control them. However, two humans, "Adam" and "Eve", stole one or more Apples, and soon after the war between Those Who Came Before and the humans started. While distracted, a presumed solar flare occured and "turned the world to ash", almost effectively wiping out both kinds at once. The remaining members of both kinds began working together to rebuild their world. As as the remaining members of Those Who Came Before slowly died out, they sealed messages from themselves in temples around the world, hoping to prevent the same disaster that had destroyed most of their kind and humankind from occuring once more. As Minerva finishes, she speaks to Desmond by name and informs his that she has done all she needs to and the rest remains up to him and his allies.
