to jacopo pazzi, francesco is merely a dog. he is meant to serve him, do his dirty work, and be his right-hand man--nothing more, nothing less. jacopo has one ultimate goal for francesco: wipe out the de'medici family, once and for all. the pazzi name must be restored to its former glory and become the wealthiest bank in florence, no matter the costs. to achieve this goal, francesco will have to spill blood, even when it violates his own morals. and to jacopo, that doesn't matter, because francesco is just a dog. but francesco is a hungry dog, and hungry dogs are never loyal.
