1 more question; In the Tales From Dunwall, the Hand That Feeds there is an element that I am not entirely certain about. The boy summons rats to devour his tormentors and then they turn on him by biting his mark. Seeing as the plague was a recent development in the game setting and the video is a precursor, did the rat biting the boy's hand corrupt the power that the boy possessed from the Outsider and start the plague? My initial thought is no, as the walls the boy runs past in the beginning shout warnings to kill the rats, but I just want to be sure.
