[The video is dark when the device turns on. Giovanni removes his hand a moment later but the device isn't entirely facing him and the picture is skewed at an odd angle. There is the usual rubble of the worse parts of the town in the background.
The brown bundle off to the side moves slightly and it becomes apparent the shape is that of a man hunched over. It's still hard to distinguish much.]
...sed libera nos a malo.
[The figure coughs violently.]
...libera nos a malo. Avrei...
...
Così è stato questo inferno tutto il tempo? [He begins to laugh harshly and then breaks into more coughing...and what can barely be heard to sound like heartbroken sobbing intermixed.]
[[Note: Giovanni has just come back from a canon update. He has just lived through his death. He is weeping for his dead sonswho are not dead here but that is besides the point. He is in his normal clothes--aka, not the assassin's robes--and there is a rather nasty red mark around his neck from where the noose hung him that will be seen in some replies.
tl;dr: He's back from a disappearance of his own.]]

Her eyes scan over his entire body to be sure that he had no bodily injures... that is until she saw the distinct red mark that bruised against his neck. The air was literally knocked right out of her and it took her a moment to recover before speaking again.]
I... I will call on your sons to find you. Just stay where you are...

Maria... mia amore...

[She couldn't help the tears that fell down her cheeks. He needed her. He needed his family.]
Qualunque cosa accada io ti amerò per sempre... Noi tutti ti amo tanto.
((Translation|No matter what happens, I will always love you... We all love you so much.))

This place...I suppose I cannot escape it.

[She couldn't believe what she was about to say to Giovanni.]
It is a blessing, in some small way.
