Robert's fate 2

Well, Robert's fate, if the ritual was performed, would be quite different. As another preview of the upcoming chapter, let's see if Carl is the best person who should have magical powers.

Chapter 14 opens one of two ways to change Pauline back to Paul. But of course, she can decide that she doesn't want to exchange places with Robert. Here are three passages as a preview of the upco...

Carl's second thoughts

The Parity 0.53a

Patch to 0.53 version. Some minor bugs and typos fixed. It's easier (from 9 to 7) to get Martha's help in chapter 13 (it seems that the threshold is too high).

About the competent NPCs

Who was on the trip with Pauline?

The trip is more important than you think. ;) It's a time of summary of your relations during the game. People there will be a rescue team if things from chapter 14 would get dark.
