Summary
(learning how to live when your death was the mechanic by which you could succeed.)
Then the assassin says, "I don't know where to go from here."
At first Corvo thinks one of the Whalers must have snuck into the room, that maybe this is a coded message, that that's why it makes so little sense—but no. It's just him, and the assassin on his knees.
"I don't know how to change this," he adds. It sounds as drained as Corvo feels. "I've tried... everything I could think of. Nothing worked. This is how it always ends." -

Summary
The mark never left, no matter how many years passed. He could feel it in his bones, his muscles, his skin, and his mind. The tension trapped him like the whale at the Slaughterhouse and its Row, feeling his guts spill out for the vultures. How they sneered at his miserable state, spatting at his face! That life is no longer his.
The Kaldwin empire rose in the empty land of Gristol, seating the first emperor on the throne. Nobody knew how long it took. Nobody knew how easily the Void would have taken their concerns away. They watched and listened, presiding over the kingdom until the blockade lifted.
The world never saw its day of reckoning.

Summary
Typhon Morgan failed the simulation. And that should have been the end of her. However, she found herself in a boat, drifting though a place that science could not explain.
It was a void. A void filled with floating islands, ruins and whales. And the strangest of them all, a man with eyes as black as a starless sky. He made Morgan an offer she could not refuse.
Corvo had been tasked with abducting the royal physician, Anton Sokolov. The task seemed easy enough at first; that was until a squad of novel ennemies showed up. Tallboys were hard enough to deal with on their own, but impossible to escape when several of them were gathered together.Corvo was ready to part ways with life, when help came from in an unexpected way.

Summary
“I’ll do anything.”
“Anything?”
Daud looks up at him – at his mask’s soulless lenses, more like, and Corvo knows it the instant he has him. Dead grey eyes sparkling with the tiniest bit of hope, clinging to life like an eel to a hook.
“You want something.” A statement, not a question. “Order away, bodyguard.”

“在这过去的、佩戴着界外魔印记的几个月里,他发觉到他的某些能力远比其他的更加高效,并且他发现自己尤其偏爱附身。他早就经历过了从附身在小型动物体内到附身狼犬和人类,从只能抓住对方意识的一角短短几秒熟练到占据他们全部意识几个小时。他甚至学会了在无需回到物理形态的情况下在不同的宿主之间跳跃,而就在最近,他学会了如何附身在连意识都没有的容器上。
其实,这样简单得多。一个没有意识的容器不会反抗他的控制,它甚至不需要呼吸、进食、睡觉。没有什么比一具新鲜的尸体更加适合附身的了。”

Summary
In 1838, on a miserable day in the Month of Darkness, Corvo Attano, the recently reinstated Royal Protector (also acting Spymaster, de facto Regent, and a very tired single dad) spots Daud, the notorious Knife of Dunwall, lurking about. Corvo knocks Daud out cold and dumps him in Coldrige, where he intends to interrogate all useful information out of the assassin. Daud has other ideas. Shenanigans ensues.
~
Corvo counts silently to three, and when he turns to look, he is rewarded by the delightfully exasperated look on Daud’s face. Then Daud does something unexpected. He laughs.
“How is it that you and Sokolov share such an impeccable skill in pushing my buttons? Jenkins doesn’t even come close, try as he might,” Daud says, closing in on Corvo. “You know, Sokolov asked me to sit for him back at the Academy, implored me several times, but I said no. I think my exact words were ‘over my dead body’. After I got kicked out at the end of the winter semester, he just went and painted me anyway. The man has an excellent if rather selective memory. Sokolov is simply arrogant and Jenkins has an unfortunate death wish, but why do you do it, Corvo?” Daud asks, crowding him against the desk. -

Summary
When Daud stumbles upon the Royal Protector perched upon a rooftop, each comes to the conclusion that the other could be useful. For Daud in collecting information relevant for the looming contract calling for the assassination of Empress Jessamine Kaldwin; for Corvo in rooting out the seediest of threats to the Crown from the seediest of Dunwall's underbelly.
Neither expects, however, that the other will drastically shift them from their predetermined course, tying them together irreparably.

Summary
Your kindness is suspicious for I do not deserve it.
---
Corvo hasn’t stopped thinking about the one who killed her. The one who took away his daughter, took over his life, took everything he had. A greedy man he was, the infamous Knife of Dunwall, taking and taking and taking. Come and gone in a flash, the whole city falling apart in his wake, burying Corvo in the rubble. More blood, always more blood. Corvo feels like he'll forever be drowning in it.
Daud hasn’t stopped thinking about the one who tried to save her. The look on the bodyguard‘s face has been burned into his eyes, following him everywhere he goes. Death clings to him with cold hands: Corvo Attano, the ever-stoic Royal Protector, turned into a vicious animal by Daud’s hand. Daud regrets so much it just might kill him. He can’t wait for that day to come.
Their paths cross, then intertwine, and nothing remains as it was.

Summary
Your name is Piper Kholson, a caretaker at Madame Grimsley's Home for Vagrant Children.
A Whaler intrudes in your bedroom, seeking his lost pouch. Overseers storm the orphanage in pursuit of the heretic, and arrest you both. That cruel twist of fate catapults you into a world of blood, corruption, and wanton flesh. Marked by the Outsider, you are forced to leave your old life behind--but hold true to your convictions. The Empire has fallen into chaos. Empress Jessamine has been assassinated by Daud, and the Royal Protector is framed.
You will do anything to protect Emily Kaldwin.
You break just about every one of Seven Strictures, as you contend with every depraved scoundrel Dunwall has to offer. Sexually repressed zealots, sadistic Lords, dangerously sexy assassins, and one enigmatic god--the temptations never end.
