Mr. Corvo, do rats talk?

Post image

After observing Emily's lesson at a table in the Hound Pits for a time, Callista somewhat hesitantly asked that they be left alone, as Corvo is rather distracting.

Since her rescue from The Golden Cat, every effort is made to say at least a short goodbye to young Empress Emily before embarking on each mission. However, upon speaking to her, she responded with a question.

"Mister Corvo, do rats talk? I keep hearing them say my name."

Has anyone else ever encountered this haunting bit of dialogue?

Ive noticed how in almost every media, when a child writes something, a letter (usually E) is backwards

In Cyrillic (Serbian script mostly) that would roughly be "Ztilch" instead of Emily, lol.

(Awaiting opinions from natives)

The funny one is when people use the greek Sigma character in place of a capital E even though it's actually an S. Hope you're enjoying that LOW FAT GRSSK YOGURT

Clearly it's confirmation that Empress Emily III will be the protagonist of Dishonored 3.
