Hey boss was wondering if I could have permission to use this in a video
Would I be able to use this track in a short film of mine (school- non profit) if i were to credit you?

Hello I was hoping to find this song on Tidal but it seems I couldn't. Is it me or is it unavailable there ? Great song I was aiming to add it in one of my playlist. Sorry for the disturbance, I am not one to ask bluntly usually but I really love this one. And sorry about errors, english is not my birth language.
"How does it feel now, knowing your allies betrayed you? Strange how there's always a little more innocence left to lose." - The Outsider, Dishonored
Dishonored 1 was such a badass game. DOTO was also great.
@@adambond8542 it took me like 10 years to complete, started as a child then went back and played the whole thing as an adult. Can't believe what I missed out on, it was so insanely good. Honestly have yet to play a game that made me feel as bad ass as corvo, especially when reading about how the villain was genuinely paranoid after I left my name in the party guest book. Masterpiece of a game

I want to know more.
@@ebaerco1659 Dishonored is a 2012 action-adventure game developed by Arkane Studios and published by Bethesda Softworks. Set in the fictional, plague-ridden industrial city of Dunwall, Dishonored follows the story of Corvo Attano, bodyguard to the Empress of the Isles. He is framed for her murder and forced to become an assassin, seeking revenge on those who conspired against him. Corvo is aided in his quest by the Loyalists-a resistance group fighting to reclaim Dunwall, and the Outsider-a powerful being who imbues Corvo with magical abilities.

@@mclovin2408 By your definition, sure I've been betrayed, but I have free will to define what betrayal means to me.

Reminds me of how protectors are treated in regards to their charges. Can't remember the exact term for the position, but killing your charge is actually seen as less dishonorable than letting them get killed, because at least then you're just seen as a traitor instead of a failure.

Bro on a deeper level it seems like a man is talking to himself, because we are our own greatest enemies. Every time we say I’ll do it later, or I have time is probably our inner self betraying us and this seems like a monologue for explaining and putting that to words

"He said it was only going to be a questioning. We let them cuff us, bag us in a cell. An hour later we were pulled out, and ordered to put out hands up. I watched my best friend die that day. Seconds later, they shot me, too. I lived to tell the tale, with burning rage and a need for revenge." -Tales from DayZ
"The shortest road to achieving his desires lay, he thought, through false promises, lying and cheating; for in his vocabulary simplicity and truth were synonyms for idiocy. He entertained love for nobody - if he called a man a friend it might be said he was certainly bent on ensnaring them. He would never laugh at an enemy, but always ridicule his associates. In this same manner, his enemies were safe from him, since it was never easy to take advantage of someone on their guard; but it was his particularly good fortune to discover how easy it was to rob a friend."
Xenophon, writing about Menon the Thessalian, 370 B.C.
These comments are really reinforcing the music. Kudos to those who are knowledgeable enough to quote these historical figures.
"You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain."
YouSeeBigGirl is one of those songs that are great for the emotional destruction and rage of a betrayal.
Whereas, this track perfectly embodies the dreadful buildup, shock, and lust, hunger, a WANT of revenge. You were betrayed by someone you loved, and they cause both you, and countless others so much grief and pain, and you're going to make them pay, and you're going make make damn well sure that it hurts.

"Come my friend, we have much to discuss, and not much time to discuss it."
He ushered him in to his quarters.
"What do you mean sir?"
"I fear that I will be betrayed tonight."
He turned and started preparing two glasses of wine.
"Sir, everybody loves you, you're respected as the greatest strategist in our empire, and you're viewed as one of the most valuable assets to it."
"I'm not so naive to think that nobody bears a grudge towards my relationship with the emperor. Now Nathaniel, if you were in my situation what would you do? With death so close, how would you handle it?"
He turned back around and gave Nathaniel his cup.
Nathaniel started to sweat, and looked daround nervously.
"Well, I'd find the culprit and avoid the conflict altogether."
Nathaniel stared at his wine as he answered, doing his best to hide the clear worry in his expression.
"Your reasoning is completely correct, however, there is one gaping flaw in your plan. You are thinking as if there is only one betrayer."
"I don't know what you mean by that."
Nathaniel's worry was becoming more difficult to hide as sweat started to pool and drip down his face.
"I mean exactly what I said, I will be betrayed by multiple people here tonight."
He held his gaze with Nathaniel.
"But as I said, everybody loves you."
This time Nathaniel shot his head up to meet his gaze.
"It's not up for debate anymore, I will be betrayed tonight, he has already set a plan in motion to kill me."
At that He brought his cup to his lips and guzzled the entire thing.
Nathaniel held his breath.
"Who is 'he'?"
Nathaniel posed the question waiting the 5 seconds for the poison to set in was agony. But something peculiar happened, 5 seconds passed, then 10, then 30. Before long a minute of silence had dominated the conversation, his eyes still staring intently at Nathaniel. He set down his cup and replied coolly.
"The emperor: your master."
Before a gasp could escape Nathaniel's he was already right in front of him, and Nathaniel had a knife in his gut.
"You see Nathaniel," He was standing over Nathaniel with a smile on his face, "I was asking for advice on an entire empire."
Nathaniel gasped, coming out weaker than he had intended.
"H-how do you know?"
"Like you said, I'm the greatest strategist in the world. It's my job to know."
A low chuckle escaped his mouth.
"The.. empire..." Nathaniel coraked, barely coming out as a whisper.
"Right you are."
Nathaniel looked up horrified as his eyes clouded over.
A little different from a classic betrayal, and the end/flow could use some work, but I'm proud of it
Love it.
Love this, you should definitely write a book if you aren’t already
Can someone explain? English isnt my first language and I didn't get it completely. What happened?

And they certainly know what they’ll do to you.

We came so far alongside you.
We bled with you.
We prayed with you.
We fought alongside you.
We had our defeats, and we had our victories.
But less and less you visited our camps.
You spent more time with the nobles and forgot where you had come from.
You warmed your bed with a string of noble ladies as a guest in the palace while we froze in the tents beyond the walls.
Then one day, you ordered an attack in which you couldn’t bother to attend.
Good men died...friends we had grown up with in our village long before we started this rebellion.
From atop the palace walls surrounded by men in gilded armor who’d never swung a sword, you gave a beautiful speech in honor of...your...victory.
It was a speech worthy of a man wanting to become a King.
I approached you and those men held me at bay.
You smirked and said nothing as they did so.
It was then I knew my friend had died.
So in killing you, I am not betraying a friend.
I am killing the sort of enemy we both shared.
I can think of no better way to honor his memory than to put into the ground the grotesque charade calling itself his name.
Those gilded men will soon break down the door and cut me down.
They’ll sing your praises and curse my name.
But for the dead there is no shame or glory.
Only a dark silence.
So before we both die there are two things I wanted you to know...
You will never be a King...
And I have kept the faith.

I have an entire story that stemmed from this song, and I’m proud to say it. Even now, it invokes such an amazing sense of just… fear. Goosebumps, every time. Here’s a line that this song inspired;

"They have been loyal to the throne for the past three hundred years, son! They will not betray us!"
"You are putting everyone in this palace in danger! Everyone within the city walls!"

"Well, then maybe you should not be king!"

There's nothing more dishonorable than being betrayed by a friend.
“Worst thing about betrayal is that you never see it coming, but if you do, you brought it on yourself.”
"Fear not he who pierces the body, for wounds can heal. But fear he who has a place in your heart. It's all to easy to burn it from the inside out. And you may peice yourself back together, but your heart will forever remain an ashen, smouldering spark, ready to be set ablaze once more."

“Jealousy is my name, for it is the very fuel that feeds my soul. I saw his happiness, and I did covet what was not mine. I saw her beauty, and I did feel captivated by that innocence. I witnessed their love grow and cover me in a shroud that I could not escape.. I listened to their cries when my anger erupted; I laughed at their suffering when their fear came to life; I devoured their lives as they pleaded for liberation.
