Corvo did everything within his power to defeat Iratus and the invading Centralized when they came to his planet. He put up a great fight as well. Then he was betrayed by a fellow citizen, Spectra, allowing for Iratus to take what was left of the crypto and head to the next planet. All that was left of Corvo's home, of everyone he knew and loved, was just enough crypto to power a ship to take after the Centralized forces. Planet after planet, Corvo was just moments too late to help, and each world destroyed by the Centralized reminded him of his own. While traveling, he trained and meditated. He thought about those he lost, and vowed justice against those who took their lives. But most of all, Corvo had his sights set on Spectra, whose last breath will be taken. So help him while he stares at a photo of the home planet they once shared. Then the Centralized and Spectra reached Crypta, which slowed them to a stop when they realized they're about to face the most resilient and powerful planet they've come upon; giving Corvo enough time to catch up. Upon arrival, Corvo immediately joined Crypta's forces and quickly proved himself an unbelievable fighter, giving him the opportunity of a lifetime: destroy Iratus and the Centralized, enact revenge on Spectra, and make up for not being able to save his first home by saving his new one.
