au. daud stabs jessamine but she survives. corvo gets angie. goes high chaos rampage.
when he gets to doaud he stabs her exactly where he stabebd jessamine, he remembers, but then he twists the knife "that is how you stab someone, hagfish"
But I do think about this a lot, if maybe Jess was put in a coma instead of actually killed. SHE WAKES UP AND SEES CORVO ALL HIGH CHAOS. AND IS LIKE "BRUH". And like Corvo doesn't KNOW that, Jess just passes out and he goes to Coldridge for the "murder" of the empress, but like maybe it was planned?
Daud's contract wasn't to kill the empress in full, but just make her conk out thru blood loss or smth idk man humans aren't real <3 Building upon the Daud knows medicine hc he knows where exactly to hit
what if like, corvo gets so drunk on power, that when she wakes up he puts a hit on her so that he can remain lord regent. Fucked up and numb ass corvo killing jess himself,,,wtf
I LIKE THE IDEA THAT LIKE. THERE'S LIKE INNER CONFLICT LIKE HE'S BECOME A COWARD DESPITE ALL THE PEOPLEHE'S KILLED, HE CAN'T BRING HIMSELF TO DO IT SO HE EITHER HIRES A HIT OR TRIES TO DO IT INDIRECTLY
Man the idea tho that Jess (unconscious) finally waking up to a wrecked city of blood and weepers, and Corvo finally gets to her and he reeks of blood and he's such a mess
Emily still being alive watching all this like 8|. Jess seeing what Emily has become. Knowing (or not knowing) that Corvo caused it p much
like she surivves another assassination attempt and has to kill corvo and his allies. what if in high chaos she smothers emily with a pillow, bc like she can't bear see what has become of her daughter
if she loses corvo cuts off her hand and forces her to watch his reign of tyranny, Emily becomes like an azula type "fuck you mom" vibes. Emily just being the one to orchestrate it all HFKDJF... I’m baby I wanna be empress NOW fuck you mom fuck you mom fuck you m- 11 YEAR OLD EMILY TRYING TO STAB JESS WITH A STAGE KNIFE
Is chaos even an option here? Or is it just slow painful deaths and murder of loved ones. Because there should at least be an option for making corvo and emily's death quick and painless.
low chaos jess uses electroshock machien on corvo. and raises emily to her best effort. like i'm imagining a grown up emily in this timeline being like antihero vibes yano. think jason todd. EMILY TEAMING UP WITH DELILAH AND HER COUP TO TAKE BACK HER THRONE
Corvo and Emily's reactions to Jessamine's survival depends on the chaos level the player achieved in Dishonored 1. It is also highly dependent on if Emily survived the light house in High Chaos.
If the player achieved the low chaos ending, Corvo and Emily will be wary at first, then relieved and glad that Jessamine survived. Emily will step down so Jessamine can resume her position as Empress. If the player achieved High chaos and Emily survived Kingsparrow Island, Corvo will be electroshocked and Jessamine will raise emily as best she can. If emily did not survive in high chaos, Jessamine will confront corvo about y'know, all the murder plus Emily's death, and a boss fight will ensue. If Jessamine herself is low chaos, she has the option to spare him and exile him to pandyssia. If Jessamine herself is High Chaos, she'll get a couple good shanks in in vengeful motherly rage. If Emily survives, the confrontation between Jessamine and Corvo will play out differently, such as Jessamine being able to give corvo the brain scrambles, and a whole "I refuse to hurt you" then Jessamine being forced to fight because corvo is all "my wife is dead, you're just some cruel trick done by the outsider" and jess tries to convince corvo its her and it doesn't work so h!
HC Corvo and Em are no longer her beloved royal protector and starry-eyed daughter
Jess also has a second option: overthrow corvo's ass. I've done it again, i've created another possible revolution storyline. Because if corvo is power drunk and his rule tyrannical, at least SOME people are gonna be like "he needs to go" of course corvo is going to crush many of them, because it'll hopefully work eventually. Smth smth those journalists in the original game meeting with jess. Just. Jess through out this DH 1.5 if the player got high chaos in the original, running into random terrified whalers, journalists, eerily silent civilians, etc etc. One whaler recounts how Corvo cut daud's head clean off, slaughtered their fellow whalers.
