The Apple of Eden

The Apple of Eden is a memory in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood.

Description
Ezio Auditore races through the Vatican followed by many guards. He reaches the courtyard in front of the Basilica di San Pietro where the Apple of Eden was hidden before Cesare Borgia arrives. Upon obtaining the Apple, Ezio flees the Vatican.

Dialogue
Ezio uses Eagle Vision to locate the Apple, and presses against the ornament in the pavilion to retrieve it. A small chamber containing the Apple opens, and he takes the artifact just as Cesare arrives with two Papal guards.


 * Cesare: You?!
 * Ezio: Looking for this?
 * Cesare: It ends now, Assassino. My sword will take your life.

Cesare clutches his chest, apparently weakened from the poison from Rodrigo's apple. He instead sends his guards to kill Ezio, but Ezio points the artifact towards them. Energy in the form of light beams is suddenly emitted from it, and the two guards kill each other. Cesare retreats.


 * Cesare: GUARDS! GUARDS!

Outcome
Ezio escapes the Vatican unscathed, along with the artifact.

Trivia

 * To achieve full synchronization, the player should not lose any health.
 * Ezio cannot call his recruits to assist him in this memory.
 * The player cannot use the artifact to fight the guards, as doing so results in health loss.
 * Once a player interacts with the Apple's location, they cannot decline the memory starting or any future memories starting, nor can they abort that memory or any future memories.
