Plot edit

In 1521, nine years after finding Altaïr's secret library, Ezio Auditore da Firenze has retired from the Assassin Order and is living a peaceful life in the Tuscan countryside with his wife Sofia and his children Flavia and Marcello while writing his memoirs. One day, a stranger appears, a Chinese female Assassin named Shao Jun, who came to Ezio to seek knowledge of his life as an Assassin. Although Ezio prefers that Jun not stay, due to his desire to leave his days as an Assassin behind, Sofia allows her to stay for the night. The next day, Ezio catches Jun reading his memoirs and bids her to leave, but relents after she asks him about what it means to be an Assassin.

While on a trip to his birthplace of Florence, Ezio tells Jun his story of how his father and brothers were executed in the town square, forcing him to become an Assassin, and how such a life only brings suffering. As they leave, they are attacked by a stranger, who appears to be of Asian origin as well. After killing him, Jun reveals that she is a former concubine, now on the run from servants of the Chinese Zhengde Emperor, and explains how her former master rescued her from his influence. Returning home, Ezio tells Sofia and his children to leave, knowing that others would come. He then teaches Jun the key to liberating her people from the Emperor's influence. Later that night, Ezio's villa is attacked by more of Jun's enemies. Ezio and Jun manage to kill them all, although the fight exhausts Ezio. The next morning, Ezio hands Jun a small box and tells her it may come to use one day, but only if "you lose your way". He then sends her away as two riders arrive at the villa.

Three years later, Ezio journeys to Florence with Sofia and Flavia, despite suffering from heart problems. While resting on a bench, a young man with a scar on his face approaches Ezio and berates the women of Florence, reminding Ezio of his younger self. After telling Ezio to get some rest, the man leaves, just as Ezio suffers a fatal heart attack and dies in view of his family. The film ends as a final letter from Ezio to Sofia is read, saying that of all the things that kept him going throughout life, love for the world and people around him was the strongest of them all.
