Description:

AU where Daud’s Mother actually is a witch. She teaches him everything she knows so that by the time he’s taken he’s already got a good grasp on magic and can do things you couldn’t imagine. She also teaches him that life doesnt owe him anything and that if he really wants something he better be ready to fight for it

By the time he gets his mark he is an expert and the void only helps him go further beyond what he already could do. His whalers also get some of what he can do just not all, he teaches them all that his mother taught him. He essentially hacks his mark and connection to the void which allows him access to powers and abilities even Delilah wouldn’t be able to do

Speaking of Delilah by the time he hears about her and eventually faces her down he is so far beyond just a mark and a knife. He’s been practicing and honing his magic for decades. She pushes her magic to the very limit and still its nowhere near his level and she goes down hard

And then Corvo arrives either without the whalers ever realizing or by leaving a trail of blood and bodies. And they fight, but daud cant bring himself to go all out and use all his power. Because deep down he knows he deserves whatever corvo does for killing the empress, but even so he’s not gonna make it easy for Corvo

And thats where it ends, Daud the witch, who had magic that no other being ever had, at the mercy of the Royal Protector. He doesn’t beg for his life, he merely stays silent and stares the Royal Protector in the eyes as he holds a blade to Daud’s throat. Daud made his choices, hes ready for what comes
