| Prompt | Answer |
|---|---|
| I don’t want to sit here all night, dying slowly like a stuck pig. | Are you afraid? |
| At a time like this, you do not feel fear. | Hell awaits you. |
| He will take care of them… He owes it to me. | Sigismund will never be king. |
| He had her torn apart by dogs. | Wenceslas did nothing of the sort. |
| While traitors like Jobst profit. | What have you got against Jobst? |
| Mark my words. | Where’s von Bergow? |
| You would like to pay him a night-time visit as well? | That’s none of your business. |
| Let me depart with dignity. | Give von Aulitz a dignified death. |
The most impactful choice in this sequence is the final one, where you decide how Markvart von Aulitz meets his end. You'll have three options:

The scene is designed to humanize Markvart and reflect on the brutal realities of war, making the dignified death a fitting choice for Henry.
Can You Let von Aulitz Live?
