Stealing from a Thief is not Theft was an altered representation of a fragmented genetic memory.
Intro[]
We have a growing problem with the Venice Guard. Let's try to set a meeting with Pitigliano, the condotierre who seems to have taken control of the city guard. As he refuses to talk to us directly, Ezio suggested that we go through our ally Niccolò Machiavelli, who has always been an efficient go-between.
But Pitigliano is corrupt and he demands a pretty penny. No way are we gonna pay this scoundrel with our money! We will take funds directly from his Guard's chests and he will not suspect a thing! Machiavelli has managed to steal the keys of the two chests, we just have to retrieve them, then discreetly approach the chests and steal their contents. We will entrust the sum to Machiavelli, who will take care of paying Pitigliano.
Objectives[]
- 1. An Assassins must first talk to Niccolò Machiavelli to collect the chests' keys.
- 2. The Assassins must then recover the contents of the 2 chests.
At the same time or after, escort Machiavelli and have him leave the Map by using a Fast Travel Station. Note: This does not earn you any XP. If Machiavelli is Eliminated, this Memory is a failure.
Debrief[]
Thanks to our intervention, Machiavelli was able to pay Pitigliano (with his own money!). A meeting is scheduled. Suspicion is the name of the game, but if we could convince Pitigliano that we are of no danger to him, we could devote our resources to developing the Headquarters and helping the Brotherhood more effectively.
Machiavelli understands the challenges that the Brotherhood is facing and offers to help us strengthen our headquarters. Great news! As a pledge of his collaboration, he offers us his famous wheeled pistol!
