Everything Must Go

Everything Must Go is a memory in Assassin's Creed II.

Description
Upon deciding that the moment was right, Antonio de Magianis tells Ezio that their greatest opportunity to assassinate Emilio Barbarigo had come. Unfortunately, the archers protecting the Palazzo della Seta were impeding their attack's success, thus they come up with a plan to kill the archers, dress Antonio's thieves as the guards, and have them take their places.

After reporting his success of disposing of the archers to Antonio, Ezio climbs the top of the Palazzo where he briefly eavesdrops on a conversation between Emilio and Carlo Grimaldi, discussing how a certain Assassin is slowly slaying their Templar allies. After Carlo departs, Emilio stands helpless and still, not even expecting the Assassin to jump from his hiding spot onto him, ending his life. After a few words are exchanged between victim and Assassin, the guards quickly surround Ezio, but before they can attack, they all fall dead from arrows, courtesy of the disguised thieves. Ezio, Rosa, and the rest of the thieves open up the Palazzo, cheering for their victory.

Dialogue
Ezio goes to the thieves guild. Antonio, Rosa and Ugo are inside. Ezio kills the archers and meets Antonio, Ugo and Rosa. Ezio uses thieves to lure away the guards, and climbs the walls of the Palazzo. He overhears a conversation from within. Ezio assassinates Emilio before he has a chance to leave. The gaurds in the Palazzo advance on Ezio, but they are killed by an arrow storm. An arrow lands inches from Ezio's foot. She drops down to where he is. They open the doors of the Palazzo. Antonio walks inside.
 * Antonio: Please, enter! Your good work has restored us to our former strength, Ezio. We are ready to strike. 
 * Ezio: Just tell me what needs to be done, and I'll see that it is. 
 * Antonio: You'll approach from above, under the the cover of night. Emilio has posted archers around the Palazzo. Kill them, but do so quietly. As they fall, my men shall replace them. 
 * Ezio: What about the guards? 
 * Antonio: When you've finished with the archers, we'll regroup in front of this building here, and discuss next steps. 
 * Ezio: Nessun problema (Not a problem). I'll take care of the archers and return to you. 
 * Antonio: Then it's settled. In bocca al lupo. 
 * Ezio: Crepi il lupo! 
 * Antonio: Well done, Ezio. Everything is going according to plan. As we speak, my men are replacing the archers you removed. The way to the Palazzo is clear now. 
 * Ezio: But not the building itself. Emilio's guards still patrol its border. 
 * Ugo: Use my men. They can distract the guards; save you from having to fight. 
 * Rosa: And when it comes time to storm the place, remember what I've taught you. 
 * Antonio: Sii cauto (Take care), Ezio. We await word of your success. 
 * Carlo: Your little house of cards is crumbling, Emilio. 
 * Emilio: A minor setback. It will be dealt with. This povero scemo (poor fool) Antonio and his thieves....
 * Carlo: Never mind them. It's the Assassin you should be worried about. 
 * Emilio: Why? Is...is he in Venezia? 
 * Carlo: He's been here for weeks! How could you be so blind?! 
 * Emilio: Unlike you, I've been busy! Someone had to provide weapons to our brothers in Firenze! 
 * Carlo: Yes, and we all saw what good that did...
 * Emilio: Enough with the barbs! What is it you want, Carlo? 
 * Carlo: Maestro has called a meeting; three days from now at Santo Stefano. 
 * Emilio: Very well. I'll be there. 
 * Carlo: Assuming you still live. If you want my advice, I'd find a less conspicuous place to wait. Seta is a target now. 
 * Emilio: Seta is a fortress! 
 * Carlo: If you say so. Goodbye, Emilio. 
 * Emilio: Cazzo (Fuck), what if he's right? You! Call my boat, it should be close. When it arrives, load these crates and prepare to sail. I'll be right back. If Carlo speaks true, I must find a place to hidejust until the meeting. Then we'll deal with the Assassin. He must be working with Antonio. That means the attacks...no! I've worked too hard for this! 
 * Ezio: Do not be afraid. 
 * Emilio: I feel no fear, assassin. Only regret. I sought unity...stability...order. 
 * Ezio: At too great a cost. 
 * Emilio: Progress demands sacrifice. 
 * Ezio: Non trovo alcuna gioia in questo, ma non c'e altro modo (I take no joy in this, but I see no other way). Requiescat in pace (Rest in peace). 
 * Rosa: Sorry! We couldn't resist. 
 * Rosa: Come! Let's open the gate for Antonio. 
 * Antonio: Seta is fallen and Emilio is no more! All thanks to you, Ezio! (to theives) Go! Tear down Emilio's banners! Return what he has stolen from the people. (to Ezio) Tell me, Ezio. How can I repay you for your service?
 * Ezio: Money's always nice. 
 * Antonio: Easy enough. (A thief hands Ezio a bag of florins) What else? 
 * Ezio: Emilio was meeting with a man named Carlo. He looked to be a government official. Do you know him? 
 * Antonio: Carlo Grimaldi. He sits on the Council of Ten. Why do you ask? What are you up to? 
 * Ezio: I have a meeting to attend. 

Outcome
Emilio Barbarigo is assassinated. Merchants are allowed to resume business in the district he had controlled. Ezio learns of Carlo Grimaldi, his next target.

Trivia

 * It is possible to kill the disguised thieves. Doing so will have no effect on the game, nor will the other thieves attack Ezio.
 * Carlo mentions to Emilio that Ezio has been in Venice "for weeks". This is odd, as 4-5 years pass between Ezio's arrival in Venice and Emilio's assassination. However, it may be that Carlo simply didn't know of Ezio's presence until weeks before this event.
