Identifying the target | Mission 5 - Lady Boyle's Last Party Dishonored Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
As you can remember, there are three ladies in the estate marked as miss Boyle. Your aim is to establish the identity of each one of them, and single out the one that is connected with Lord Regent. This can be done in either of two ways described below.
New Optional Quest: Get Miss White a drink
Variant 1) Safer and more time consuming, but, at the same time, assumes remaining on the ground floor. There are two things to do here, and the first one of them was described in the subsection entitled Explore the basement and the ground floor of the Estate. You need to keep initiating conversation with miss White until you receive a side quest connected with bringing the lady a drink. To do that, go to the ballroom and prepare the drink by interacting with the fountain (the above screenshot). Return to miss White with the drink to learn that Waverly Boyle is wearing a white costume, and Lydia Boyle is wearing red.
New optional quest: Talk to Lord Brisby
New optional quest: Knock out Esma Boyle and deliver her alive to the basement
Remain on the ground floor and find Lord Brisby, that will ask you to listen to him (the above screenshot). After you initiate conversation with Lord Brisby again, he will reveal to you that the person you are after is Esma Boyle. At the same time, he will ask you not to kill her (more about it in the subsection entitled Choose your way of eliminating Esma Boyle). Since you already know what color costumes the ladies are wearing, you will conclude that Esma is wearing black.
Variant 2) This variant will allow for singling out your target quickly, but is, at the same time, more dangerous. This is so, because it assumes the exploration of the first floor, that is inaccessible for the party guests. You need to reach Esma's Boyle bedroom, which was described in detail in the subsection entitled Explore the Boyle Estate's first floor (it's the one connected with a balcony and the service staircase). Once you get to the bedroom, examine it carefully to find a Note to Esma Boyle.
