    Summary

    Corvo hates him, by the Void; every fiber of his being wants him dead. He hates how Daud's face haunts his nightmare, how he can't dream of Jessamine without being flooded with visions of her death.

    But he owes it, to Jessamine's memory, and to Emily's future, to be better than that. He lowers his blade, with only a few drops of blood running from a thin cut on Daud's throat, and the assassin stares at him with shock and wonder.

    That being said, if Daud imagines Corvo will simply let him walk free, he's overestimating his capacity for mercy.

    (AU where Corvo throws Daud in Coldridge after DH1 instead of letting him go.)
