Art done by yours truly (me, Brickerman)

It is done for the philosophy project in my university and we had to do something creative. One of the occurring themes was existentialism. I'm no philosopher (my main specialization is English), but it seems the whole theme of existentialism is of one's free will. It is fully opposite to the other movement, that is determinism, where everything has already been decided and we can't do anything about our fates.

I thought it would pretty well with the scene after the final boss. I want to believe that characters fate isn't decided by the prophecy, rather by themselves. The game already having 3 different paths depending on player's actions is already a proof that *something* can be done, despite what the prophecy says.

But I can't know beforehand what cards Toby has in his sleeves. Maybe I'm wrong. We will witness it, sooner or later

Pixel-art I did for my philosophy project. The intended theme is that of a rejection of the idea that one's fate has already been determined. I can't know beforehand what will happen in the end, but I hope that characters' fate is decided by them, not by the prophecy
