I definitely sobbed at the end. Andrew Prahlow deserves huge credit for his musical score, I can't even listen to Travelers on its own without somebody cutting onions.

All the conversations at the very end of the game hit me right in the gut every time I read them.

spoilerThis song is new to me, but I am honored to be a part of it.

spoilerThe past is past, now, but that’s… you know, that’s okay! It’s never really gone completely. The future is always built on the past, even if we won’t get to see it.

spoilerWhen my kind found the Eye and realized what it was capable of, they were terrified. It was too difficult a truth. Like a light too bright to look upon directly, it burned them. What they could not unlearn was hidden away in darkness — obfuscated, then lost. They did not want to see their story end. My kind weren’t always like this. We weren’t always so afraid. I did what I could to set things right, yet I am still of my kind, and you know now what they did. I cannot promise our fear won’t stain your mind.

spoiler...How beautiful. It’s different than I’d envisioned. Whatever happens next, I do not think it is to be feared.
