    Summary

    There was something about the Renaissance that was both incredibly overwhelming as well as painfully familiar.
    In many ways, it felt like home. In other ways, it was nothing like Desmond had expected it to be.

    The Animus was not entirely accurate in its depiction of the time. It left some things out and changed others but it was definitely close enough for Desmond to get by. Rome was very different from how it was in Desmond’s time but the layout was mostly the same as were the larger buildings like the Colosseum and the Vatican.

    It made Desmond believe everything had all been a bad dream. That he was still underneath Villa Auditore, hiding from the Templars while spending countless hours inside the Animus. Only when he got out of the Temple and got to the surface did he realise that this was not the case. This was not just Heavy Bleeding, like Desmond experienced the past few weeks, this was real. Terrified at the implications, Desmond did what he had been taught to do best.

    He hid.

    Summary

    Desmond didn't use the Eye, the world burned, people rebuilt and world continued.

    It's been almost 300 years since then, and what was built is coming to a head.

    Summary

    In which Desmond ends up back in time and doesn't so much decide to use it to deal with some hangups he had about Ezio's life as much as sort of... falls into doing it because of bitterness and spite and some very questionable medicine.

    Summary

    Seventeen is all smiles and mysteries - never lying but never telling the whole truth either. While hunting templars and chasing the playful man all for years across Florence’s rooftops and Venice’s carnivals, Ezio isn't quite sure what to think of him. Turns out he knows quite a lot about rewriting history...
