About this story
Rescuing an injured laborer from a prince's carriage earns you a guide, Maximilian Petion, who leads you into the tunnels where the secret Brotherhood is planning revolt. There you help hide Estella Washington, a woman trapped in Prince Cabano's palace — and when his men break down her door, her poisoned knife draws blood before the rescue planned for her can arrive.
