- You have pleasant dreams! But look around you. You mymo've lived reality. The bloodshed. Violence. The space between the rich and the poor ... and<br />
that does nothing but expand. He looked into his eyes Ezio-. Never will be at parity. I made peace with it. And you should do them well.<br />
- Never! The Murderers always fight to improve humanmanity. Perhaps unattainable Utopia, a heaven on earth, but every day the fight is a step out of<br />
the quagmire.<br />
Rodrigo sighed.<br />
-Santa simplicitas! Forgive me, but I got tired of waiting to awaken humanity. I am old, I saw many things, and I have few years to live. "An idea popped<br />
into his cahead and cackled maliciously-. Although who knows? Maybe the Dome is able to change that, right?<br />
But suddenly the Fruit of Eden began to shine, with more inintensity each time, until its light completely filled the room, blinding them. Pope fell on his<br />
knees. Shielding his eyes, saw Ezio map image began to be designed so Codexber wall dotted with holes. He stepped forward and took the Staff papal.<br />
- No!Rodrigo exclaimed, her hands claw giving inutiI lurched into the air-. You can not! You can not! Is my destination. Mine!I I am the Prophet!<br />
In a terrifying moment of clear consciousness, Ezio was Auditorst that long ago, in Venice, fellow Murderers had seen what he had wanted to reject. The<br />
Prophet istobacco was present, in this room, about to turn its intendedno. Rodrigo looked almost with pity.<br />
"I never said you were the Prophet-. Poor deluded soul.<br />
The Pope fell backwards, old, fat and pathetic. And continuoustion, spoke with resignation.<br />
"The price of failure is death. Give me at least that dignity.<br />
Ezio looked at him and shook his head from side to side.<br />
"No, old fool. I returned to kill my father. Or FeDerico. Neither Petruccio. Or any of the dead, eitherfront of you, either powerless at your service. As for<br />
me, are over the deaths. He looked to the Pope in the eyes, and seemed troubled now, and frightened, and the elderly, nothing to do with the piercing<br />
brightness of his enemy-. Nothing is true, "said Ezio-. All is allowed. It's time to find your own peace.<br />
Rodrigo and departed from the Staff approached the wall, pressdo with the end of a sequence of scattered holes, as he showed the map projection.<br />
And it appeared the outline of a large door.<br />
That in the time Ezio played the last hole, it opened.<br />
Then opened a wide aisle, with glass walls filled with ancient stone sculptures, marble and bronze, and many camerasflush with sarcophagi, marked all<br />
with runic letters, which got Ezio read: were the names of ancient gods of Rome. The coffins were tightly sealed.<br />
As he walked down the aisle, Ezio was surprised by the unknown of architecture and decoration that seemed to be a strange mix of a very old style, the<br />
style of his own time, and structures and forms that did not recognize, but whose instinct suggested that they should belong to the distant future. On the<br />
walls were reliefs depicting the ancient events that seemed to show not only the evolution of man, but also the driving forces.<br />
Much of the silhouettes seemed human, though forand clothes but could not recognize. And there were other ways, not knowing if they were carved,<br />
painted or were part of itthe cosmic space was happening: a forest that ended in the sea, monkeys, apples, canes, men and women, a cloth, a sword,<br />
and colossal pyramids, ziggurats and juggernauts, ships sailing under the water, strange screens shiny patransmit all kinds of new knowledge, all kinds of<br />
communitytion ...<br />
Ezio also recognized not only the fruit of Eden and the Staff, but a sword of great size, and the Shroud of Christ, all carried by figures of human form, but<br />
not pajust be. Distinguished a description of the earliest civilizationstions.<br />
And finally, in the depths of the vault, he found a hugeI granite sarcophagus. When Ezio approached him, he began to brillar with a warm light. He<br />
stroked his huge cap and rose with a hiss audible, but the cover was light, as if hitgives your fingers, and slid back. Emerged inside the tumstone bath a<br />
wonderful yellow light, warm and inviting as the sun. Ezio shaded his eyes with his hand.<br />
Then, he got up inside the sarcophagus figure cuEzio yas factions failed to distinguish, but I knew I was Frenyou a woman. Ezio looked at changing and<br />
burning eyes and emitio a voice, a voice similar to start with birds chirping, which ended up speaking in their own language.<br />
Ezio was wearing a helmet on his head. An owl perched on his shoulder. Ezio nodded.<br />
"I Regards, Prophet, "said the goddess-. Took ten thousand thousand waiting stations.<br />
Ezio dared not look up.<br />
"I'm glad you came," said the Vision-. And LLEgo with you the fruit of Eden. Let me see.<br />
With humility, Ezio offered it.<br />
"Oh. He stroked his hand over the space above the fruit, but not touching. The Fruit of Eden began to glow and throb. Vision stared at Ezio-. We must<br />
talk. He cocked his head, as if reflecting on something, and Ezio seemed to glimpse a hint of iridescent smile on his face.<br />
- Who are you? Ventured to ask.<br />
She sighed.<br />
"I have many names ... When I died, was Minerva. AnTES was Merva and Mera ... and so on, with the passage of timepo ... Look! He pointed to the set<br />
of sarcophagi where Ezio happened before. And as he was pointing to them, were litnandose the pale glow of moonlight. And my faily ... Juno, formerly<br />
known as Uni .. Jupiter, that are calledTinia Maba before ...<br />
Ezio was petrified.<br />
"You ancient gods ...<br />
There was a sound like breaking glass or the sound that would make a shooting star ... It was his laughter.<br />
"No ... we are not gods. Just came ... before. Howdo come into the world, yours struggled to understand ourwork life. We were more ... developed over<br />
time. Your minds were not still prepared for us ... He paused. And maybe they are not yet ... Maybe this neverran. But that does not matter. "Her voice<br />
became somewhat harder-. But although we may not understand, you inbuild our warning ...
