Outcome, n.

Shades of meaning
Fernald has no entry of its own for outcome; he lists it under consequence, end, event.
Where he writes about it:
The end is the actual outcome without determination of its relation to what has gone before; it is ordinarily viewed as either the necessary, natural, or logical outcome, any effect, consequence, or result being termed an end; as, the end of such a course must be ruin. — from consequence
The event (L. e, out, and venio, come) is primarily exactly the same in meaning as outcome; but in use it is more nearly equivalent to upshot signifying the sum and substance of all effects, consequences, and results of a course of action. — from consequence
Outcome is the Saxon, and event the Latin for expressing the same original idea. — from event
