Ezio meeting Leonardo in the mountains

Knowing that his friend's destination was aligned with his, Ezio set off to find Leonardo on the road from Florence. Sure enough, he encountered Leonardo in the mountains alongside his broken cart, where he was attempting to fix the shattered wheel. The Assassin helped him repair the carriage, and caught his first glimpse of Leonardo's Flying Machine, which was loaded into the back of the cart.[2]

Together they set off for Forlì, from where they would take a boat to Venice. However, Borgia guards on horseback pursued them through the range, setting fires in front of them, and attempting to board the carriage itself. The two managed to evade their attempts, and upon reaching the mountain range's end, Ezio told Leonardo to go ahead in the carriage, while he stayed to dispose of the guards.[2]
