Dr. Aeon reveals the secret purpose behind the Architect...to prove that the Butterfly Effect is false, that the present cannot be changed by changing the past.


Souvenir

The Lizardman Dr. Aeon's Hero ID

As you look at this picture of Dr. Aeon as a Lizardman, you think of your strange adventure, The Butterfly Effect. Dr. Aeon wanted to prove that history can't be changed, so he sent you to an alternate Earth's past to plant a recorder and a chemical bomb, to try and change it.

Going to that world's present day, things had been changed. No people, just civilized Lizardmen. And worse, the recorder had been taken.

Hunting for the recorder, you learned that it had been taken by the Lizardman Dr. Aeon, and had used the technology in it to start their own Portal program. So our heroes and theirs may run into each other in the future. Based on the fights you had, that may not be a good thing.

Yes, it is I, Doctor Aeon, the creator of the edifice you stand in now. Come close, and I will tell you a secret.

Why? Well, telling secrets is fun, and you look like a trustworthy sort of...all right. I need someone with your unique set of skills..

The secret? Oh, yes. The true purpose behind Architect Entertainment is for just one scientific experiment. Disprove the Butterfly Effect theory. "If you go back in time and do something small, it can make major changes to current time." My belief is that time cannot be changed, if a time traveller came from the future and made changes, it's because that time traveller always came from the future.

No, the Countess doesn't know. No one wants to fund pure science. It's all about "How will this destroy the bane of my existence" or "How will this give me ultimate power?" No interest in science for its own sake. Personally, I blame TV.

Anyway, are you interested in helping out?
