How I loved you

Let me tell you, dear reader, about happier times. Let me tell you about Jessamine Kaldwin, the Empress-to-be, and Corvo Attano, her Lord Protector. Let me tell you about the day they met, about the (mis)adventures they kept on getting themselves into, and how they fell in love. Let me tell you, about the most infamous affair in the Empire, and how much more there was to it.
