This article is about the memory of Ezio Auditore. You may be looking for the memory of the Spanish Brotherhood of Assassins. |
Follow the Money was a virtual representation of one of Ezio Auditore's genetic memories, relived by Desmond Miles in 2012 through the Animus 2.01.
Description[]
Having gathered 3,000 florins for Egidio Troche, Ezio prepared to tail him to his meeting with the Banker.
Dialogue[]
- Egidio: I cannot believe you would just do this.
- Ezio: There is a condition.
- Egidio: I knew it.
- Ezio: Keep an eye on the politics of the city. I want you to report back to Maria at the Rosa in Fiore (Blooming Rose) about targets who are helping the Borgia.
- Egidio: And what, you'll...make them disappear? The pezzo di merda (piece of shit) may hate me, but he's still family. Va bene (okay), we go.
- Ezio: I will follow you to the Banker.
Ezio met Egidio Troche at the first meeting spot, where he eavesdropped on the conversation.
- Guard: Egidio. It seems you are ready to die like a gentleman.
- Egidio: I have the money.
- Guard: Oh. That's different then. The Banker will be pleased. You came alone?
- Egidio: Do you see anyone else here?
- Guard: Follow me, furbacchione (wise-ass).
They began to travel to the second meeting place. Ezio followed them, unnoticed.
- Egidio: Have you heard anything about my brother, Francesco?
- Guard: Cesare is dealing with him.
- Egidio: I hope he's all right. So what are you going to do with my money?
- Guard: The Banker likes to treat his friends well.
Egidio replied sarcastically.
- Egidio: How generous he is.
- Guard: What did you say?
Egidio quickly apologized.
- Egidio: Nothing.
Ezio followed Egidio and the guards carrying the money chest to the Pantheon, and watched as Egidio and the guards went inside.
- Guard: Egidio brought the money.
- Luigi Torcelli: Well, well. The Banker has a special evening planned. I will be delivering your payment. Give it here.
Egidio reluctantly handed the chest of money over.
- Luigi: Hold him until I get back!
Ezio made a mental note.
- Ezio: I better not lose sight of the money.
Ezio proceeded to search for a way inside. The conversation between Egidio and the guards continued.
- Egidio: Why not release me? I have paid.
- Guard: He is counting the money. Until it is counted you cannot leave.
- Egidio: What is taking him so long? Oh.
- Guard: He has to count the money from all the Banker's clients.
- Egidio: Did he not do that already?
- Guard: He must not have written it down.
Ezio accessed the inside of the Pantheon via the opening in the roof.
- Luigi: Now to go kill that Senator.
Ezio quickly climbed down and killed Luigi as he counted the money. He then changed into the guard's armor.
Outcome[]
Ezio assassinated and disguised himself as Luigi the guard captain.
Trivia[]
- When Egidio gave the money to Luigi, the militia who was threatening Egidio held a sword, which looks the same as Sword of Altaïr.
- Later in the same memory, a Papal Guard was also seen with a similar sword.
