He took the jobs he did because his targets were all equally corrupt. Never, until the Empress, did he take an innocent life; this is proven by his journals. He would not have been wracked with guilt had he not done something different than what he was used to. There was a reason he called his employers "bastards," as he does the Outsider. He probably did not have a liking for any of them, but they gave him coin and it made no difference to him when he killed them for someone else because of their corruptions. He had a knack for dealing death to evil, but the Empress was different. His actions were so oft-repeated that the Outsider lost interest in him until the difference that Jessamine Kaldwin made in him became "interesting."
