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're presented with three options:
- Give von Aulitz a dignified death.
- Kill von Aulitz like a dog.
- Let von Aulitz live.
The recommended choice is to give him a dignified death. This choice reflects Henry's compassion amidst the brutality of war, allowing Markvart to stand before Henry delivers the final blow with his sword. Choosing the second option results in a cold-hearted execution while Markvart remains seated. Given the scene's intent to humanize Markvart and highlight the horrors of war, opting for a dignified death aligns well with the narrative's themes.
Can You Let von Aulitz Live?
If you choose to let von Aulitz live, Henry will walk away, leaving him to bleed out slowly. Before departing, von Aulitz requests another cup of wine, which Henry provides. After handing over the wine, Henry leaves, and von Aulitz drinks as he succumbs to his fate.
