Everything is Connected

No one will ever know exactly what it took to save Emily Kaldwin from a living death as Delilah's puppet. No one except the Outsider, who watches everything, and thinks his own dark thoughts, and speaks to few in any generation. I've learned that our choices always matter to someone, somewhere. And sooner or later, in ways we can't always fathom, the consequences come back to us. I came from Serkonos to Dunwall as a boy and made my living as a killer; one of the few who've heard the Outsider's voice. I murdered an Empress, but saved her daughter, who will one day rule the Empire. Those were my choices. I'm ready for what comes.

You make an eloquent plea, for a man with innocent blood on his hands. It's a shame Corvo doesn't know the real story, isn't it? How Daud the legendary assassin spent his last days doing whatever it took to save Emily Kaldwin. Defied the keepers of Coldridge Prison, faced down gang leaders, and the terrors of Brigmore Manor. With the end coming, you cut a savage swath through Dunwall, blood and terror, for the fate of Empire. A story never to be told. And you leave the ending up to Corvo? That's courage. You make your own choice, and accept the price.

You make an eloquent plea, for a man with innocent blood on his hands. It's a shame Corvo doesn't know the real story, isn't it? How in these last days you passed through Coldridge Prison like a shadow, dared the tangles of Dunwall's underworld and walked out unscathed; outwitted one of the greatest witches in a generation, all with consummate care and skill. How you saved Emily Kaldwin, daughter of the Empress, first of her name, and no one will ever know. But how does it end for Daud the hired killer, the murderer, the savior of the Empire? It's up to Corvo now.
