Earlier to the grave

[…]

Her father does not even guess that she was murdered. He mourns; he curses [...] that he did not have even the few more months promised by doctors. And then [...] he remembers that his Empire is also in mortal peril, and that he had a scheme for its salvation.

Description summary:
The first paragraph varies if you lead the Society of the Three-Fingered Hand, while an extra paragraph is added if you have completed Ambition: Nemesis.

SocietyFirst Paragraph
0Your request does not shock your agents. They work on the Surface; to them, all death is permanent, and causing one more such death is a part of the Game. To kill the little consumptive is hardly even an effort.
1Your request does not shock your agents. They belonged first to Mr Veils, and the appetite for violence runs beneath everything they do. It suits them very well to suffocate a dying child with her own bedclothes.
NemesisExtra Paragraph
