Assassin's Creed --- Brotherhood (Blog post #3)

Hello readers of my blog, it is high time I introduced the sequel to "Assassin's Creed --- Renaissance" to you. As you know in the previous post, Ezio is a hard-core assassin who makes it his mission to hunt down all of the templars. However, in 'Brotherhood', he decides that his foe, Cesare, was too strong as he had the French's and his aristocratic father's support to end the reign of the assassins. In order to counter this, Ezio builds up his own army, mainly people who were against Cesare and those who have been tortured by him. Also, he seeks help from people famously known in history (might be a little fake) like Niccolo Machiavelli (writer of "The Prince") and Leonardo Da Vinci.

In 'Brotherhood', Ezio starts on his journey to Monteriggioni, his uncle's fortress, to defend it from Cesare's all-out attack. However, they could not hold out and Ezio's uncle lost his life there. Determined to avenge his uncle, Ezio flees to Rome with his brotherhood, taking his family along as well. He then stayed there for a long time, spending his time thwarting Cesare's plans. Ezio was so close to capturing Cesare sometimes, but the main character just doesn't get to die so easily. After several confrontations, the assassins finally capture Cesare, only to let him escape after two years, while they were off guard. However, Ezio managed to use his piece of Eden to locate Cesare and his assistant, Micheletto, before trying to capture them once more. However, his ambushes on Micheletto always failed for the fact that Michelleto was well-trained. Finally, when the chance came, Ezio and Machiavelli took the chance to place bombs all over the military camp where Cesare was building up his army, delaying all his plans and actions. They then tailed Cesare to an inn, where they saw him kill his own assistant in cold blood for failing him. Finally, Ezio met Cesare in a final battle between both of them in a tall battlement where he and Casare fought to the death. He had the advantage of being much more highly skilled and experienced then Cesare, although he was sixteen years older (he was 46 by then). After engaging with Cesare in a long fight full of taunts, he finally injures Cesare and manages to throw him him down the battlement, leaving him to fate (he obviously died from falling from a few hundred feet). In the end, he, Leonardo and Machiavelli part to settle down with their own lives. Machiavelli's to write his book, "The Prince", Leonardo to invent and draw and him to carry on leading his brotherhood to eradicate the rest of the Templars, who just lost a worthy, ferocious and courageous leader.
