Edwina Moira is the wife of captain Robert Moira. She has temporary lost her mind due to the shock from hearing of her husband's death and seems to be in denying of this news.[1][2][3] Because of her state of mind and the captains death some of her guests have started to steal from her.[1][4]
In the mission House of the Widow Moira, Garrett can find Edwina sitting in the cupola, singing a shanty in her delirium and talking to people who aren't there.[5] She mistakes him for one of the guests and asks him to bring her a bottle of wine.[2] If done and leaving her guests and inheritance alone she will thank him by sending him a bottle of Vintage Wine but if he takes the money she will instead send a thug to kill him.
She dislikes the Mechanist Victrola that her husband had kept in the master bedroom and apparently refuses to listen to it. On it the late captain had recorded a message to her detailing the location of a secret room containing a chest holding her inheritance and the method how to access it.[2][6]
Since Robert always hid the fact that he was a pirate from her it is likely she never knew.[7]
Aftermath[]
Considering she may possibly send an assassin to Garrett or give him a reward (or do none of those things) depending on his actions, she eventually regains her senses and found out if her inheritance has been taken or not.[3][8]
Notes[]
- Moira is one of the few characters in the Thief games that doesn't react negatively to Garrett's presence during a mission.
Trivia[]
- Ginny is her favourite servant.[9]
- Although she is confused she is aware that some of her guests are stealing from her.[2]
