i like the theory that the dunwall city trials are corvo's nightmares (the random targets of each mission, the medley of entirely different locations forming new, uncanny labyrinths, the elements of the void overreaching into the world of the living, etc. all seem to point to this), but it's also so fun to think of the outsider's potential interference in these dreams. for someone who desires "a good show" above all else, throwing your protagonist into the fray of your design over and over again to observe every possible reaction you can elicit from them must be the height of entertainment. in that light, some of the missions (such as kill cascade) become fascinatingly cruel; the outsider will give corvo the means to repair or deepen the fracture of jessamine's death in the waking world, but in dreams, he must be the one to create it.

i’m still thinking about the way billie phrases her surrender in the knife of dunwall’s low chaos finale: kill me or let me live, if it even matters to you. the fact that they're even there to have this conversation is proof of how this decision must have weighed on her; with her training and her skills and daud's mind scattered in a hundred different directions, she likely could have followed delilah's brutally practical advice to cut his throat and be done with it once and for all. but she hesitated until the final moment of reckoning when their narrative had finally come full circle, from daud placing a knife in a child’s hands to give her “something to live for”, to her returning it in defiant supplication years later ("my life is yours now"). yet, despite her certainty in the inevitability of this moment, she still can not be sure of such a decision burdening him as it did her until the very moment he must make it in turn. it's part of what makes the ending so poignant to me, whether in sparing her and echoing his first words to her (now giving her a life unburdened by the ticking clock hanging over him), or clasping the knife together with her as she only smiles and nods back in understanding, and holding her hand long after she is gone—it's then that you see how much it mattered to him as well. and the unspoken grief of it not only ending the game, but also leading to the only bookend of the dlc's to have no narration from daud. it's the outsider who must take over then to chronicle the tale, as he had to for corvo. for daud, the rest is silence.
