Authors Notes

Hello everyone this is my second fanfic. If you have seen my first one it died after three chapters for a few reasons and I will try to keep this one going strong. The last one helped me learn how to make this story better and not a pile of garbage. For one thing I actually know frozen and dishonored rather than playing one darkness game and watching kung fu panda and thinking I could do it.

Elements of tangled will appear. If you have never seen the movie relax it's not really going to ruin anything or make you confused, just a little treat for those who have.

Corvo is 46 and Emily is 17 just letting you know.

Feedback is crucial to me, if the story ends up sucking don't tell me it sucks and nothing else, leave some feedback and ways to improve it.

Note this chapter is just explaining the past 7 years in Dunwall. So it may be kind of boring to read the next ones will have some humor and action.

Ps I am very busy and I only have a few hours a week maximum to work on this. Also if anyone knows C# or the unity game engine please contact me I am having trouble making the player shoot.

Chapter 1

It has been seven long years after Corvo saved Emily and in that time Dunwall slowly grew prosperous. When Emily became Empress many people became nervous and scarred. They did not like having a child Empress nor did they like Corvo even after his name was cleared. His actions led others to become wary and scarred of him. There were many rumors about him such as how he used to sleep with Rats and turn into a shadow. These rumors were false of course but they did their job none the less and terrified the people.

Corvo was also appointed commander of the city watch. As much as Corvo distained this he secretly liked it. He enjoyed ruling over the people that tried to kill him after every move even when he exposed the people who ordered the assignation on Jessica. Emily made the right call, who better to command a force than someone that was able to sneak past and sabotage them. All the flaws that Corvo saw were quickly fixed and patched, this made the watch much more effective than ever before. Instead of trying to charge at one person from one side they were much more passive. They would surround them and try to stay out of range making them perfect for taking out gangs.

There were a few attempts to end Emily's reign and "save" Dunwall but they were all shot down by the city watch and Corvo. Emily said that the people were scared and angry with the rat plague and she did not hold those attempts on her life against those people. She threw them in Coleridge prison until times were better then she would let them out and they would be free. This awarded mixed reactions from the people. Some called her naïve others, weak for not sentencing them to life in prison or death, others praised her kindness. The rats became the main target from the start of Emily's rule as once they are gone it would only benefit people and strengthen her rule.

The rat plague that tormented the city was slowly wiped away taking long two years. At first the plague felt like it would have never been removed but thanks to Piero and Anton Sokolov efforts the plague died down. At first they had a passive role by mass producing potions that would prevent people from becoming sick. Latter on they became much more aggressive and set their sights on extermination. They developed poisons and small scale arc pylons and placed them around the city. These pylons would turn rats or weepers into ashes but would completely ignore anything that didn't display signs of being infectious. It was marveled by everyone and called the next best things since whipped cream. Ok fine maybe Corvo only said that but it was true. It was deployed a year into the war against the rats and proved to do wonders turning a problem that would have taken massive man power, money and ten years down to a year.

Once the rat war was over things started to look very bright, people looked to Emily for guidance and Corvo was always at her side. Attempts on her life has ceased no one was able to fault her for anything and the people that tried to take her life at the start have become her some of her strongest supporters. They knew what they tried to do was wrong and that it may have resulted in their deaths. However they did not know a person could have been so understanding and forgiving. They made sure to attend all of her rallies and speeches they were also the ones to cheer the loudest.

Piero and Anton also helped soothe the people of Dunwall with their invitations. They were hell bent on making life much more enjoyable for everyone, they tried to make machines that would do labour for them but they were too costly to be really useful. They were absolutely stumped but the solution was right under their noses.

The people grew to love music, bands started to pop up everywhere and this music was something that no one has ever heard before. The rat plague affected everyone's sprits and music. Instead of the boring ball room music that was played everywhere this new music was different. It was heavier louder had a bigger impact on people lives they would sing it and it would help them get through their day.

Bands like Iron maiden, Black Sabbath, Rush and many others started popping up all over the place and it clicked with everyone. People would talk and talk about this new sound and praise them. Their concerts were sold out and when they performed on the streets an empty street would soon become filled with people. It was a great thing but had to be banned due to all the complaints of people that needed to get to work and travel.

Naturally people wanted more to be able to listen to their music whenever they wanted to. This is what Piero and Sokolov tried to do, their first few attempts relied on trying to create a new type of technology which was very expensive and failed. They then aimed for a simpler route. They decided to make a compact card where the bands would record a copy and then mass produce it. It was an absolute hit and was compatible with the older players as well. This technology was called CS (Compact Sheet).

Emily used this to her advantage and played soft music over the Dunwall and noticed immediate effects. People were happier and much more productive than they ever were.

Dunwall was still in ruin from the past events but now Emily had a solid base and there were no more revolts or opposition. Trying to fix Dunwall alone and turn in back into a respectable place was going to take a lot of work and time. Time which is valuable, time which is in demand and time which that no one had. Everyone was too busy trying to earn a living off minimum wage. Their economy was on a slow rise but it would have taken too long to even try and get it up by themselves. They needed to be in control in case a war would ever break about between Dunwall and another empire.

The rest of the years after the rat war were spent trying to repair Dunwall and it was a slow steady process. It took too long for the likes of Corvo and Emily and they were starting to make plans. Dunwall is an isolated city that was never well known. May people never traveled in or out of Dunwall as there were stories of lost ships and sea monsters. Corvo didn't believe in sea monsters but he know something was fishy but for now he was thankful for that. It made the weak city have a cloud of mystery from most of the world. This protected them for one reason or another. Maybe the other empire thought they were very powerful or that their land was in disarray and taking it over would be counterproductive. Either way Emily did not care as long as they were safe for now.

Dunwall continued growing in power and started to communicate with other nearby lands. They were all similarly matched in technology but trying to join them would have been pointless, they want strong allies not people who were in a recovery.

During a talk with another kingdom which shot down their offer at an alliance told them that there were faraway lands who were not as advanced with them and one of the Kingdoms was about to have a coronation in several months. Emily and Corvo said their thanks for the information and decided to go and make friends with them.

It would have been a three month journey with a sail boat but whale oil is a beautiful thing. Their boat was filled with oil and extra for any other devices that may be used. Emily of course could not leave the Empire without a guide and appointed eight of her advisors to run a democratic rule for her time away.

The ship was a frigate class ship and is said to withstand pirates and sea creatures. In honor of the outsider the ship's name is the , this is a fitting name for a Royal Dunwall Ship. It was run by a crew of 50 and contained life boats and weaponry supplies in case anything would happen.

It was the night before the departure and the crew of the was very excited to leave Dunwall and see a new land. They ship was fully stocked and they were all ready to leave in the morning. They expected to arrive in Arendelle a week before the coronation. Some people said a week prior would be overkill but this would give them time to explore the land and a nice amount of room for error.

This is where our story really starts…

Authors notes

Sorry it was so slow and that it was all about Dunwall but I felt like it was a must. The next chapter will be much more interesting and exciting. I expect the next chapter will be out in a week or two. No promises like I said I'm very busy.

Ps I'm trying to avoid italics as it is broken on mobile or maybe it's just the 3ds.
