--WHAT DRIVES THE CAMERLENGO TO KILL THE POPE WAS THAT THE POPE HAD ADMITTED SOMETHING TO HIM THAT HE HAD NEVER BEFORE SHARED, OTHER THAN WITH CARDINAL MORTATI. THE POPE HAD FATHERED A SON. THIS WAS ALL THE CAMERLENGO NEEDED TO KNOW FOR HIM TO KILL THE POPE, AS HE THOUGHT THE POPE HAD BROKEN HIS VOW TO GOD. WITHOUT WANTING TO HEAR THE FULL STORY, THE CAMERLENGO KILLS THE POPE, BUT ONLY IN THE END WHEN CARDINAL MORTATI REVEALS TO HIM THE TRUTH THAT THE POPE HAD NOT REALLY BROKEN HIS VOW AND THAT THE POPE WAS HIS REAL FATHER THROUGH ARTIFICIAL INSEMINATION DID THE CAMERLENGO REALIZE WHAT HE HAD DONE. |

Leonardo Vetra’s corpse is found in his lab, lying naked on the floor with the Illuminati ambigram branded on his chest. Of note as well, Vetra’s neck had been broken, its bones jutting out of the skin, and it had been twisted 180 degrees so that his face was turned to the floor. His right eye is missing, as it had been physically (and brutally) removed. |
Father Silvano Bentivoglio’s corpse is lying in the reaction chamber, his right eye missing and a gunshot wound (maybe more) to the right side of his chest. |
