Shadow of Destiny

by Mystic Mongol

Part 7




Tell her nothing it is!




You guys chose based on the duality, "Sleep with her/Don't sleep with her." As for her, she would see the duality as, "Chance to go to the future/Stuck in the past destined to spawn ungrateful children and free will is an illusion." It's true what they say, Men are Goons, Women are from the Middle Ages.




I didn't really want to! If you need me, I'll be sitting in my room staring out the window at the mudhole that is my entire world.





If the digipad lets him, anyway.

She seems down. We should cheer her up a little.





Way to perpetuate a stereotype, Margarete.




Yeah, sure. I'll use time travel to form a single-customer traveling candy shop. I know he doesn't have much control over his time-hopping, but arn't Eike's dreams rather... small?

Time to head out, I suppose. Huh, Hugo was outside.





HE looks older. I guess he's not a vampire.





Embarrassed by Hugo, Margarete decides to embarrass him back.





Goddamn chair!




This is what life was like before all our kids were doped up on Prozac.




This family has serious problems. Mr. Brum and his daughter were much more fun.





He lacks a strong father figure, and projects his anger at the death of his mother, as well as his subconscious desire to sleep with her, onto his sister figure. This oedipal complex is caused by an imbalance of the humors. I recommend leaches.





She wants him.




Hugo can't be all bad, he's rooting for Eike.

Well, nothing else to do in the past. To the future!



A bit!






Huh. I'd have thought founding a library would be harder... I guess it's just a matter of being in the right place at the right time. I'm going to miss Karl Fransen's paintings of chapter 2, though.






Sure. Do you want a cassarole, or would you prefer a roast?

Time to hit the books.




That worked nicely.



Awww!






When you try to use an item in your inventory and it has no use, Eike take it out, looks at it for a second, then slips it back into his pocket.



I want a pocket cat!

Let's hit the books.



No.



No.



No.



Ah, here we go.





The antidote doesn't exist anymore? That's a problem...



THAT TIME TRAVEL FIXES!





Guess it's free, for the chocolate.



What do you want, kid?

Want to see my time machine again?




Kids say the darndest things.

Well, back to 1902.










This is why Eike is one of my favorite video game characters. He's just a generally nice guy.

You can skip the kitten thing entirely... it doesn't even count towards completion, it's just being nice to a little girl. That's so sweet.




Quick! To the present, while the kitten distracts her!

Sure don't care about people seeing you NOW, do you Eike?



As you land, the poison kicks in. Seconds to live! What to do!? WHAT DO DO?!




Fate defied!




The chapter ends with Eike looking thoughtfully at the comb.



Almost two hundred images... I am not looking foward to chapter eight. At least the next chapter is shorter.
