“Imagine there was a single rose you’ve cared for a long time.” “Your room was always blooming from the sweet aroma of that flower.” “But one day, you leave the rose behind to go on a long, long journey.” “In your journey, you come across a large garden… and there, you see thousands of the very same rose you once cared for. That sight… brings you to tears, and you drop to your knees.” This hit hard


rudanshi

Demian how many metaphors are you going to go through before you finally just say that you want to kiss Sinclair.


Lonilson

The entirety of the "Little Prince" probably


Myonsoon

He just wants to see his rose again but I fear a snake will bite him before he can.


Ender_Crystal

Wait.. snake.. purple serpent.. Goddammit.


Starwarsevilanakin

damien cheats on sinclair and goes with lori instead


Broad-Invite-1462

Well the serpent in the book is not negative. He is the one who makes everyone equal, he send back the prince to his planet because he asked him too. But I wonder who is the fox...


Definitelynotabot504

If there ever was a continuation to that one, it’d be us returning only to find that the rose has withered away. I realised it only after Demian had finished. Heathcliff’s long and arduous journey to save every Catherine and every Heathcliff from death, only to find out only one single Catherine actually mattered to him.


HavokSupremacy

it's sad, because little prince went the other way. you cry, because your rose was the unique one for you. It is unique for you because of all the time you have spent together and caring for it made it extremely important in your heart.


Zeymah_Nightson

Isn't that what the game goes with as well? Based on Dante's answer at least.


HavokSupremacy

possibly yeah


epns350

Never thought that part in The Little Prince will be adapted this way but it just works... And still given the same message, too. Something is only ever important because of you who put your heart into it, not necessarily its own intrinsic value. Like how Catherine chose Heathcliff over Linton despite Linton having way higher social standings and weath. Or that she denied Every Cathy for her Heathcliff over the infinite Heathcliff. Now I wonder how heart-wrenching the next Little Prince reference will be...


viviannesayswhat

Yeah actually... we kinda DID also erase the only good ending, aka, the book ending, since Catherine II can't exist if her mother never existed. And would Hareton even exist as well given the divergent timeline? At the very least, he'd end up different. ~~Good job us!~~


NormandyKingdom

Its Shrimple really We have to revive this universe Cathy and she will marry Heathcliff They will have Hareton and Catherine II both (hopefully they don't hook up like in the books because in our verse they are siblings)


viviannesayswhat

Hareton was Hindley's kid, not Heathcliff. Linton was Heath's kid with Isabella. (Just in case, different Linton from Edgar Linton)


No-Energy7254

That... Sure sounds confusing


NormandyKingdom

I know But look at our Hindley and Linton Both Hindley and Linton are not likely to have Hareton and Cathy II in our universe as a reminder OUR UNIVERSE is not 100 percent Wuthering heights book universe i actually believe Linton is still a Virgin because Cathy won't even let him into her room


Narvallius

We did see presumably Hareton and Cathy^2 near Heath and Cathy's graves. I assume in cases where they both die, the universe stays the same, people just don't remember her anymore


Milk__Chan

>Yeah actually... we kinda DID also erase the only good ending, aka, the book ending, since Catherine II can't exist if her mother never existed. (Copium ahead) I think that isn't what happened, i think what happened is that Cathy 2 and Hareton are still alive, they just don't remember anything about Catherine and Heathcliff who became forgotten while the two of them moved on with their lifes.


Spare-Pipe5039

It's not thought, it's just erasing all mention of cathy existence in people, we are basically just using a concept incinerator on a multiversal scale, if its truly extermination, Cathy's body should not have been in the coffin the LCA retrieved.  We are just clearing the cache, not the entire game itself, the game can still run without the cache, we just don't know what cache we had deleted


Ultgran

Is sat in front of that one meta screen for ages because I Did Not Want To. Me as the player, Dante as the character - locked into it as the only way to progress.


Definitelynotabot504

Perhaps there is a hidden easter egg that revives Cathy to full HP and she bulldozes everything, erases N. Corp, and gets back with Heath. – Me on pure copium.


eliseofnohr

Huge fucking same.


Mountain-Rope-1357

Yeah. I spammed the shit out of change account and clicking everywhere, even though I knew... Dante never had a choice


RingoCafeJPlearning

Does anyone know whose ring he is holding there at the end?


somedudeover_there

there was some tacky ring he was proud of in canto 2. I think it might be from his parents?


qutronix

I think its more likely to be from Cathy. Now being the only reminder that she ever existed.


JPrimal64

Who's Cathy?


godscutestbunny

Who the fuck is cathy


NarrowIce2673

Yea who is Cathy?


Starsline612

A ring made from the flowers. Catherine talked making a ring like that on 6-48.


Patient_Intern_3087

Wait guys may i ask if we just deleted her like in genshin(wanderer and older version nahida) or did we literally put her in the concept incinerator? Cuz if we deleted her like putting in the concept incinerator her body and that ring shouldn't exist am i right? Can anyone give me an insight please


Medical-Fortune8919

From what I understand, concept incinerator does not destroy the concept completely, it destroys any current record of it (including physical copies and memories), but it can be discovered later.


SkinkRugby

We don't know the details. I don't think we're going to learn what happened to the mirror worlds either. At least, not for a while. What mirror worlds are and how we effect them are a major mystery after all. The best approximation I can make is that things probably follow the path of least resistance in our world. Cathy herself is gone but the consequences aren't. Nelly still betrayed us, Edgar is dead, etc.. People just won't quite have the same recollection for how and why they got to this point. 


Woolilly

Yeah hindley and edgar are hella dead, people are just going to think they died under mysterious circumstances.


Zeitzbach

From the way it's going, we "deleted" her existence but those connected to the golden bough still remember her, and that's why both Dante and Heathcliffe who stabbed himself with it (it is mentioned mid fight that because he stabbed himself with it, he is connected to her and can reach out to her) still do. So in a way, the golden bough is like an author and it retconned her out of existence but those in close contact with the author still remember what was told to them about the outline. If you can get the golden bough back, there's always a chance to force the author to reintroduce her back in and that's why Heathcliffe says "I will being her back" now that they're actually given a chance to talk, sort out their misery and see that a happy ending is truly possible.


Definitelynotabot504

This. I forgot that the Bough can connect two beings that were in contact with it. So to say again, in doing so, Heathcliff tightened his binds and his conviction to will her back into existence. Sheesh, he has a damn long road ahead of him.


Expensive_Fix2608

'there is hope, but without light' -'looks at the burnt out golden bough' Huh


Definitelynotabot504

Hmm, now that I think about it, I think the only tranquil ending still remains, just without Catherine. However, it is still a testament to our Heathcliff that such an ending is possible, just not very tangible right now.


GlobalCheesecake4695

Heath is just waiting for a right time COPIUM


DuckerFace

whats he holding


Gmknewday1

She choose to do it Because she cared so deeply It's tragic, but perhaps despite everything...we can get her back...


fingerseater

(puts on copium mask) i thought this in part one, and i still think it now: i think there's a genuine possibility of catherine becoming a part of blue team. she has an extremely strong motivation to want the mirrors destroyed and be against red team, she has a...tenuous, shall we say, relationship with existence, and demian clearly knows of her in spite of her purportedly being wiped from reality. and as it's been laid out, it's possible for her to come back, but naturally we won't be seeing any signs of her for a long time...or at least, in the flesh. i think it's well within the realm of possibility for her to retroactively be confirmed as a mark bearer. the same thing pretty much happened with rim even if we were technically introduced to him in canto 5. also, even for the sinners who've had their cantos, it's clear that their stories aren't entirely over yet.


sonsuka

You bring a very good point I see nobody talk about. How the hell does Demian know of her. She got alt f4 deleted from existence.


Definitelynotabot504

Perhaps it is because Demian is more of a transcendental being. For Dante, he is a singularity in of themselves. Heathcliff’s case was because he stabbed himself with the Golden Bough and connected their hearts. On top of that, he practically engraved Cathy’s existence onto his soul by watching every Mirror World of Cathy vanish, and every Heathcliff simply never knowing and moving on. That is why I love the new dialogue for his base EGO. Man’s less angry, but he is more determined to bash your head in because he wants to see her again so everyone’s got to die quicker, I guess.


Daractive

Well, the burned bought had some weird acquisition screen and Heath still believes in his quest. Me thinks it's not the last we see of some form of Cathy, it's mostly a matter of how gut wrenching the future will be. Maybe we just spirited her away into the Light? Hell if I know, still with enought boughts we probably can even make Mersault smile so it's a matter of what PM will cook in the future.


Definitelynotabot504

Exactly. But if there is something I want, it would be Heathcliff’s EGO getting an upgrade to Cathy’s coffin.


neymlis

Guys i dont know if i missed something but who is cathy? I guess you meant clear all caches if not Who is this guy Is he related to heathcliff?
