Decoding Da Vinci is a memory in The Da Vinci Disappearance downloadable content pack for Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood.

Description

Ezio returned to Leonardo's workshop after obtaining the final painting. Salaì searched every painting, but found nothing until Ezio used his gift to search the paintings. Ezio found several invisible drawings on the paintings and drew them out on paper, seeing them as pieces of a map. Ezio properly aligned the pieces and found the location to the vault.

Dialogue

Ezio enters Leonardo's workshop, where Salaì is examining one of the recovered paintings.

  • Ezio: Have you found anything?
  • Salaì: Nothing is there, no pages, nothing.
  • Ezio: That cannot be. Something must be special about them. Think.
  • Salaì: I am done thinking. These paintings are a blank slate.
  • Ezio: Salaì, doesn't Leonardo conceal his research?
  • Salaì: He frequently writes backwards... Ezio, he also experimented with inks, including an ink that vanishes! But we can't see invisible ink... can we? Ezio, use your gift!
  • Ezio: You know about that too?

Ezio speaks to Salaì as he sits by the fireplace.

  • Ezio: I am going to solve this.
  • Salaì: I hope so. I cannot take much more.
  • Salaì: Do you think they would hurt him? Leonardo is terrified of violence.
  • Ezio: Unfortunately, this world is a violent place.
  • Salaì: Don't look at me, I cannot see them.

Ezio begins to search the paintings for clues.

Ezio speaks with a distraught Salaì

  • Ezio: There are drawings on the paintings!
  • Salaì: We were right!

He continues to scan the remaining paintings for more clues.

  • Ezio: Found another!
This one has been searched entirely.
There were two in this one as well.
I see a drawing.
Everything found.
I found one.
I found two drawings.
Got one!
  • Salaì: You have finished with that one, I see.
  • Ezio: I've found all the images. They seem to fit together.

    Ezio starts to search for the clues.

  • Salaì: Draw them already!
  • Ezio: Bring me paper and ink.

Ezio draws the images on sheets of paper.

  • Salaì: Is that a map? Show me the entrance.
  • Ezio: I must first position its pieces.
  • Salaì: Wait! What about the burned paintings?
  • Ezio: It is likely the missing parts will not be needed.
  • Salaì: Care to bet on that?
  • Ezio: No.

Ezio puts together the recovered pieces of the map.

  • Ezio: Here! The entrance to the catacombs!
  • Salaì: Go. Bring him back to me.

    The map pieces are put together.

  • Ezio: Hang on, old friend. I am coming.

Outcome

Ezio discovers the entrance to the catacombs and departs for them in search of his closest friend.

Trivia

  • To achieve full synchronization, the entrance to the catacombs must be discovered within 5 minutes.
  • The title of this memory, Decoding Da Vinci, is likely a reference to the famous novel by Dan Brown, The Da Vinci Code.
