Summary
(learning how to live when your death was the mechanic by which you could succeed.)
Then the assassin says, "I don't know where to go from here."
At first Corvo thinks one of the Whalers must have snuck into the room, that maybe this is a coded message, that that's why it makes so little sense—but no. It's just him, and the assassin on his knees.
"I don't know how to change this," he adds. It sounds as drained as Corvo feels. "I've tried... everything I could think of. Nothing worked. This is how it always ends."Bookmarked by Neare

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.)
