The knife of Dunwall

I miss that old man.

[robynator]

obsessed with how daud canonically chooses to forgive billie when she gives him the choice between killing her and showing her mercy after she betrays him

obsessed with how just a few months later, daud does the same, placing his life in the hands of a man whose life he completely ruined, asking to be spared and, against all odds, walking away from that encounter alive

obsessed with the alternatives you're given to those options as well

how, if you choose to kill billie in low chaos she helps you guide the blade. how she looks up at you and smiles as you stab her. how you hold her hand as she dies and don't let go even after she's gone

how, in high chaos, you just don't get that choice. her death is brutal, just like all the other deaths at your hand. like she said, what's one more body? but she's not just one more body. she's your second in command, your confidant, the closest thing you have to a daughter. you don't kill her with the same detachment you do for everyone else. you don't simply pull her onto your blade, you grab her by the throat as you stab her. it's brutal and it's personal, and that makes it so much worse

how, if you end brigmore witches with high chaos, corvo will kill you because you are not true to your word. you say that you feel remorse over jessamine's murder and yet your actions speak otherwise. you are not sincere in your words and while corvo may not know that, the game does. and it's telling you that that's the only way it could end. that if daud goes down that path he will not ever better his ways, nor will he be given the chance to. the only way daud can live is if he is actually committed to change

but despite all those options, in canon, daud gives billie the chance to leave and make a new life for herself. and corvo does the same for daud. and that is a parallel i think a lot about

Corvo chose Ghost-NoKill run lmao

Last mission in “The Knife of Dunwall” makes me cry every time I think about it again. I’m sure such illustrations with this song and the whalers exist already but..

It's been 5 years of intrusive thoughts about crafting this painting and now it lives in my apartment rent free.

Just accidently typed 'the knife of funwall' into youtube.

I imagine it's exactly the same except Daud has a party hat on, as do all the rats.

Finished this spread😋💥💥

[russianyoshkinaneko]

the game hasn't told me how Daud zooms so far, so i say it's either a scope or he has special eyes just like Corvo

(also i lost that one legendary "how does Corvo zoom without the mask" gif so if you have it pls link T___T)

*Tardis noises in the Background* Honestly this is an amazing opportunity for this reference and I am appalled that I have never seen this joke before 😂
