Persona Non Grata was a virtual representation of one of Ezio Auditore da Firenze's repressed genetic memories, relived by Desmond Miles in 2012 through the Animus.

Description[]

Ezio Auditore met Leonardo da Vinci and learned that Cristina Vespucci was attending Carnevale in Venice, with her husband Manfredo Soderini.

Dialogue[]

Ezio met Leonardo during Carnevale.

  • Leonardo: Ezio! I was hoping to see you tonight.
  • Ezio: I don't have much time. The Doge's party starts very soon.
  • Leonardo: Nevertheless, I have news. I hear Cristina Vespucci is in Venezia for Carnevale. Weren't the two of you close?
  • Ezio: Once...
  • Leonardo: Perhaps it would not have been better not to tell you. She's with her husband. She may not be too happy to see you.
  • Ezio: No... It's wonderful. It's Carnevale! With this mask, she need not even know it's me! I know just the way to draw her attention... Grazie, amico.

Leaving his good friend, Ezio searched for Cristina, and upon finding her, Ezio slipped a note he had written into her pocket.

  • Ezio: There... Now to await her at the rendezvous.

Ezio waited in a nearby alleyway for Cristina to arrive.

  • Ezio: Cristina...
  • Cristina: Manfredo! When did you get so romantic—
  • Ezio: Sshhh...

Ezio and Cristina kissed intimately, but after a moment, Cristina became suspicious and removed his mask.

  • Cristina: Ezio...? What the hell are you doing here!? How dare you—?
  • Ezio: Cristina... It's alright.
  • Cristina: Alright!? I haven't seen you in eight years!
  • Ezio: Sì... (Yes...) I was afraid you wouldn't come if I... just asked.
  • Cristina: You're right. I wouldn't have! Ezio... The last time I saw you, you kissed me in the alley— and then left me behind to get married!
  • Ezio: It was the right thing to do. He loved you.
  • Cristina: Who cares what he wanted? — I loved YOU. You had your second chance... Please, Ezio... Don't ever find me again.

After speaking her mind, Cristina hurriedly left.

Outcome[]

Ezio impersonated Manfredo and saw Cristina again. However, upon realizing that he was not her husband, Cristina asked him to never to find her again.

Behind the scenes[]

"Persona non grata" is Latin for "an unwelcome person".[1]

This was the only memory of Cristina that did not take place in Florence.

If Ezio accessed this memory while wearing any outfit, he would not wear a mask.

Despite taking place during Sequence 9 of Assassin's Creed II, Ezio could still gain notoriety in Venice during this memory.

Although Cristina had seen Ezio's outfit multiple times, she showed no signs of recognizing it.
