Ezio renovates the Rosa in Fiore and Claudia runs the Guild of Courtesans. Claudia and the courtesans are now allied with the [[Assassins]], and are tasked by Ezio to find Caterina.
Ezio Auditore knocks on the door of the Rosa in Fiore and speaks with a courtesan, however, they are interrupted by another courtesan bearing the news that the owner has been captured. Ezio decides to rescue her and pay her ransom, but the slave traders kill her after taking the ransom. Ezio kills them in return and reclaims his money. Afterwards, Ezio returns to the Rosa in Fiore and is shocked to find his mother and sister there. He renovates the brothel, and leaves Claudia in charge of running the business.
The slaver slits Solari's throat, killing her, then orders his men to attack Ezio. Ezio swiftly eliminates all of the slavers and takes his money back.
Reunion
Later, Ezio returns to the brothel to inform the courtesans about the fate of Solari. However, he is surprised to see his mother and sister waiting for him.
Ezio:Mother? Sister?
Maria:Ezio. Ser (Sir) Machiavelli said that you might be here.
Ezio:What are you doing in Roma? Has Firenze been attacked?
Claudia:No. Or, rather, I do not know. We did not go to Firenze.File:Highstakes4.jpg
Ezio is shocked to learn of his family's presence in Rome.
Ezio:Why?
Claudia:Ezio, we want to help.
Ezio:I was trying to help you by sending you to Firenze.
Courtesan:Where is Madonna Solari?
Ezio:She's dead.
Courtesan: Merda (Shit).
Lucia:What now? Will we have to close?
Ezio:You cannot close. I need your help.
Courtesan: Messere (Mister), without someone who can run things, we are finished.
Claudia:I'll do it.
Ezio:You do not belong here, Claudia.
Claudia:I know how to run a business. I ran Uncle Mario's for years.
Ezio:This is different.
Maria:What alternative do you have, Ezio?
Ezio:You do this, Claudia, and you are on your own.
Claudia:I've been on my own for twenty years.
Ezio:Fine. I intend to repair the brothel. This place is a real mess. And I want your courtesans to find Caterina Sforza.
Maria:Ezio, the Borgia make it difficult for Claudia's girls. There are several things you can do to that would aid them...
Ezio:I will keep that in mind. Anything else?
Claudia:No. Ezio--
Ezio:Did you find Caterina?
Claudia:We are working on it.
Ezio:Bene. (Good.) Come to see me at Isola Tiberina (Tiber Island) with her location.
