Recently, in order to make the world of Eden feel more concrete, I've been thinking and organizing thoughts about alternate paths or "What-If" scenarios. These are related to all the choices the characters "could" make but not the ones that are chosen in the Golden Path, a.k.a. the actual storyline. For Example, "What if Seth accepted to join Cain on the Airship escaping Haven at the beginning of The Young Revolution?" These outside the box thoughts are not only fun to think about but also help dig deeper into a character's motives and goals in the main storyline. I've tried hard with coming up with answers to these alternate storylines, but I will obviously miss a few. In the grand scheme this doesn't matter too much, but it's a fun activity to do when you need help with brainstorming or expounding certain sections you may feel are lacking. I wish I could speak about some of these answers here, but that is huge spoiler territory, so I'll have to hold off for now!
