Emma Ravenhearst and Charles Dalimar sketches

The White dress with those rose-like hair clips was seen in the Escape from Ravenhearst.The rest of dresses are seen in the first Ravenhearst game in her pages.

Charles is probably the most difficult character for me to draw. Mostly because I don’t often draw male bodies/characters.

I Realized Something That Makes Me Feel Like An Idiot For Not Realizing It Sooner...

It's Concerning Charles' Death/Defeat In Return To Ravenhearst & Then His "Miraculous" Reappearance In Escape From Ravenhearst. It's Easily Explained If You Pay Attention To Certain Details. One Detail In Particular Is The Letter Charles Wrote To Emma.

This Letter Right Here From Return To Ravenhearst. Let's Break It Down So It'll Make Sense.

The First Paragraph, Charles Is Asking Emma To Forgive Him For Killing Her Or Rather Assuming That She Eventually Will Forgive Him. He Also Notes That He Will Bind Her To Him, This We Know He Did So Using The Soul Machine.

The Second Paragraph, Charles Tells Emma That She Won't Have To Worry About Being Alone Because He Will Eventually Kill Rose & The Twins As Well, Which He Did, & Their Spirits Would Join Her As Part Of The Soul Machine Used To Keep Him Alive & Keep Their Souls Bound To Him.

The Third Paragraph, Charles Mentions That The Locks Will Keep Them Bound To Him But They Won't Last Forever & Will Eventually Rot Away But He Has A Way Of Preventing This. The Way He Does So Is By Using The Machine To Pass Between The World Of The Living & The Spirit World Or As He States "Remain Within The Void." He Uses The Souls Of Rose & The Twins Who Are Bound To Him To Traverse The Path Between So He Can Spend Time With Emma In The Spirit World, Who Is Also Unfortunately Bound To Him & Therefore Unable To Move On.

The Fourth Paragraph Mentions Victor, Who Charles Tasks With Taking Care Of The Upkeep On The Manor. Victor Obviously Has Used The Machine As Well, Considering He Has Lived Over 100 Years, Taking Care Of The Manor For His Father.

And The Final Sentence, Charles Gifts Emma The Locket.

Now, Here's How This Detail Makes Charles' Reappearance In Escape From Ravenhearst Make Sense.

In Ravenhearst, The Detective Finds The Pages Of Emma's Diary & In Doing So Figures Out What Charles Did & Frees Emma's Soul From Charles. Though The Attachments Cannot Be Seen, It Can Be Assumed That Emma Was Also Hooked Up To The Soul Machine, Which Is How Charles Had Bound Her In The First Place. It Is Also Possible The Locket Played A Part In The Bounding Of Her Soul Because The Spirits Can Use It To Help The Detective In Escape From Ravenhearst.

In Return To Ravenhearst, The Detective Goes Back To The Manor After Finding Out Charles Was Still Alive & Rose & The Twins Were Still Trapped. Using Her Intuitive Skills, The Detective Manages To Also Free Rose & The Twins From Charles & Shut Down The Machine. However, Shutting Down The Machine Essentially "Kills" Charles Because The Souls That Were Keeping Him Alive Are No Longer Bound To Him & Shutting Down The Machine Causes It To Combust, Destroying The Manor & The Complex Beneath It With Charles Inside.

But He Comes Back In Escape From Ravenhearst... How Is This Possible You Ask? Let Me Explain. When Charles Realizes What Has Happened, He Calls To Victor & Orders Him To Use His Time Machine That Is Nearby To Travel Back In Time.

Victor Travels Back To 1895, The Year Charles Kills Emma & Traps Rose & The Twins, & They Hatch A New Plan. They Start Building The Trap For The Detective In Addition To The Original Plan Of Trapping Emma, Rose & The Twins, Victor Having To Avoid His Past Self At The Same Time.

When The Time Comes To Pass Once Again For Charles To Be Defeated, How Is He Not? He Never Was. When The Detective Shut Down The Machine, It Essentially Cut Off His Means To Pass Between The Living World & The Spirit World, Trapping Him As A Spirit. Then When Charles & Victor Created The Soul Machine 2, Charles Was Granted A Physical Body, Using The People They Kidnapped To Do So, Also Eventually Using Those People To Resurrect Emma, Rose & The Twins & Luring The Detective Into The Trap.

So Charles Manages To Come Back Cuz He Never Really Died. He Was Just Trapped As A Spirit When The First Soul Machine Was Destroyed & Was Granted A Physical Body Again With The Help Of The Second Soul Machine, Created After Victor Went Back In Time.

This Also Explains How Charles Dies For Real In Escape From Ravenhearst. He Is Physically Alive & Not Traversing Between Anymore.

I Feel Like An Idiot For Not Realizing This Sooner. I Guess It's Time To Get On The Ball On Playing The Series Again So I Can Get To This Point.

For those who don't speak Spanish I took the time to translate this post into English(I hope this okay with the original poster). Also I used Google Translate to translate this so I apologize if it isn't entirely correct or doesn't entirely make sense.

Impressions

It has light spoilers, if you haven't reached the end ignore it.

Okay, I already saw a gameplay of the game, we were shown what green energy sent to the past of his nemesis, Charles invented and built anything mechanical(a butler named Robert, tubes to pass letters, a small flying ship to send packages and messages); Yes, he worked on his projects. Doors with puzzles are present.

Robert(or Roberto as I call him), is a loyal assistant, very loyal. 🩶⚙️

Now with the temporal alteration I happen this:

The MD cured Emma, Emma managed to return to the United States to take care of her sick father, she married another man and her offspring work with MD at the agency.

We sent the letter to stop the construction of the mansion, and as Charles was arrested and taken to the asylum(I hope to another one), the construction stopped permanently and the victims who he used for his experiments lived in peace(How do you think he managed to make a machine to be immortal?:trial, error and test subjects)

Without Emma and without a mansion, Rose was not hired by Charles, neither she nor her daughters had a fatal fate, Rose lived happily next to her husband.

And since Emma or Rose was not imprisoned by Charles, Victor was not born.

Most of the games in the Ravenhearst saga did not happen by changing the past, these were:Ravenhearst, Madame Fate(Fate is still alive), Return to Ravenhearst, Escape From Ravenhearst, Rewind.

The games where Alister appears could happen differently; In Fate's Carnival, Alister, not knowing about his son, decides to trap Fate to get her crystal ball, MD would rescue her and defeat Alister, in Sacred Grove, the story would not change, the Key and Unlock games would be combined, Alister would make a lair in the old unfinished construction of the mansion, he would put a spell on the guy to make a museum of the middle ages, he would get the materials and by his own spells raise the ancestral land, the MD would confront him together with the MD of the age half, Alister loses, MD does not get the crow skull mark and there would be no Dalimars. Whether or not the stories of the games are combined, see it however you want.

The case papers would no longer exist or their information would change.

Will MD's memories of his cases related to the Dalimars be erased over time or not?

Charles said he would come back and show up again, we'll see.

But what did impress me is...

Why does MD have wavy hair?

Her hair is pretty and she takes care of it but it wasn't how I imagined her. (I thought she would have straight hair). :c

~~~

Again I hope the translation is correct considering I used Google Translate. This is an interpretation of the events of Dalimar Legacy and while everyone is allowed their own opinion I wanted to give my own opinion on what is stated here.

The first paragraph just states what happens. The only thing I have to say about this is I love Robert so much. He is so cute. Also yes Charles was working on puzzles, locks and contraptions from the very beginning because we know this is why he was locked in the asylum in the first place; his diagnosis was literally illusions of grandeur and lock and key obsession.

The next sentence, yes Robert is incredibly loyal which is what, unfortunately, leads to his demise, merely because of his programing. RIP robo-buddy.

The first bullet point, it is very clear that MD cures Emma, considering they, while possessing Charles, looks for a cure and administers it. And yes the offspring of Emma does work at the agency with MD because at the end after MD goes back to their own time period and their own body, they meet said offspring, which is Emma's (I think) great-granddaughter, who tells MD the manor was never lived in, mentions Emma, she even looks like Emma and mentions it becoming the new MCF headquarters.

The second bullet point, yes the letter stopped the construction and thankfully, Charles was arrested, sent back to the asylum and hopefully, everyone else lived happily ever after.

The third bullet point, this one gets a bit confusing. Yes, Rose lives happily with her husband and never works for Charles but... the daughters. That's the confusing part. One of two things could happen with them. In Key To Ravenhearst we learn the twins are related to Charles rather than Rose's husband like originally thought. With the changed timeline, they could either be:A:never born or B:be related to Rose's husband(for real this time). It is up to personal choice. I could honestly see either one being true.

The fourth bullet point, I fully agree with this one. No Victor. Thank goodness.

The fifth and sixth bullet points, I am combining these for a reason. I agree with the list of cases that no longer exist but I also want to add some. I believe that Ravenhearst, Madame Fate, Return to Ravenhearst, Escape From Ravenhearst, Fate's Carnival, Sacred Grove, Key To Ravenhearst, Rewind, and possibly Moths To A Flame don't exist and here is the reason. Ravenhearst never happened cuz the manor was never finished. Madame Fate never happened because Charles was locked up and long dead(possibly) by then so therefore she doesn't die. Return to Ravenhearst and Escape from Ravenhearst never happened for the same reason as Ravenhearst. Fate's Carnival, Sacred Grove, Key To Ravenhearst and Ravenhearst Unlocked never happened because Alister would be trapped in the Ball of Fate. The only reason he originally escaped is because Madame Fate was dead and the spell trapping him weakened and he was accidentally released by MD. But with Madame Fate still alive the spell never weakened and Alister is still trapped. Since Alister is still trapped, Ravenhearst City never got resurrected and the citizens that are trapped there remain so. And Moths To A Flame possibly didn't happen because the Archivist wouldn't have had the Ravenhearst cases to take inspiration from but then again, it could've still happened just differently. If Moths To A Flame didn't happen, the games following that featured the green energy, could've been erased or changed. But what was described in the sixth bullet point is interesting to think about as a possibility but the biggest flaw I see with it is it is obvious Alister never used the manor because when MD goes back to their own time, the manor was never lived in or used at all from the looks of it and seems to be confirmed by Emma's descendant.

The seventh bullet point, yes the cases that no longer exist would no longer have a record in existence.

The eighth bullet point, it's possible but honestly I don't think they will forget.

The sentence following the bullets, I think Charles will come back for several reasons. For one thing, the Dalimars always seem to pop back up. For another, in this new timeline, Alister is likely still alive, albeit trapped, and he could get free somehow still. Third, GrandMA Games, stated in a Facebook post that 'Charles Dalimar will live forever.' And lastly, I am an optimistic Charles fangirl who needs Charles to come back.

And on the last thing, I don't think the Detective's hair is a for sure thing. As it is shown, the Detective is likely to have any hairstyle or look or gender. I think it is to be assumed the Detective is supposed to be you or whoever or whatever you want them to be.

Sorry for the long post. I just saw this and wanted to translate and give my thoughts. What are your guys' thoughts?

Impresiones

Tiene spoilers ligeros, si no han llegado al final ignoren.

Ok, ya me vi un gameplay del juego, se nos mostró qué la energía verde envió al pasado de su nemesis, Charles inventaba y construía cualquier cosa mecánica(un robot mayordomo llamado Robert, tubos para pasar cartas, un barco pequeño volador para enviar paquetes y mensajes); si qué trabajaba en sus proyectos. Las puertas con rompecabezas están presentes.

Robert(o Roberto como le digo), es un asistente leal, muy leal. 🤍⚙️

Ahora con la alteración temporal paso esto:

El MD curó a Emma, Emma logro volver a Estados Unidos para cuidar a su padre enfermo, se caso con otro hombre y su descendencia trabaja con MD en la agencia.

Enviamos la carta para parar la construcción de la mansión, y como Charles fue arrestado y llevado al manicomio(espero que a otro), la construcción paró definitamente y las víctimas quienes utilizo para sus experimentos vivieron tranquilos(¿Cómo creen que logro hacer una maquina para ser inmortal?: prueba, error y sujetos de prueba).

Sin Emma y sin mansión, Rose no fue contratada por Charles, ni ella ni sus hijas tuvieron un destino fatal, Rose vivió feliz al lado de su esposo.

Y como Emma o Rose no fue aprisionada por Charles, Víctor no nació.

La mayoría de los juegos de la saga Ravenhearst no sucedieron por cambiar el pasado, estos fueron: Ravenhearts, Adame Fate(Fate sigue viva), Retorno a Ravenhearts, Escape de Ravenhearts, Rewind.

Los juegos en donde aparece Alister podrían pasar de forma diferente; en Carnaval de Fate Alister al no saber de su hijo decide atrapar a Fate para conseguir su bola de cristal, MD la rescataría y derrotaría a Alister, en Sacred Grove la historia no cambiaría, los juegos de Key y Unlock se combinarían, Alister haría una guarida en la vieja construcción sin terminar de la mansión, pondría en un hechizo al tipo para que haga un museo de la edad media, conseguiría los materiales y por sus propios hechizos levantaría la ancestral tierra, el MD lo enfrentaría junto al MD de la edad media, Alister pierde, a MD no se le hace la marca con forma de cráneo de cuervo y ya no habrían Dalimars. El que si se combinan o no las historias de los juegos véanlo como quieran.

Los papeles de los casos ya no existirían o su información cambiaría.

¿A MD se le borraran los recuerdos de sus casos relacionados a los Dalimar con el paso del tiempo o no?

Charles dijo que volvería y quizás vuelva a aparecer, ya veremos.

Pero lo que si me dejo impresionada es...

¿Por qué MD tiene el cabello ondulado?

Su cabello se ve bonito y que se lo cuida pero no era así como me la imaginaba(pensé que tendría el cabello lacio). :c

Since I Haven't Posted Any Drawings In A Bit, I Figured I'd Post This...

I Drew Emma Ravenhearst's Locket. I Didn't Have A Better Reference Picture Than This But I Think I Did Pretty Alright.

Top Picture Is My Drawing.

Bottom Picture Is The Reference. The Locket Itself Is In The Bottom Right. That's What I Drew LOL.

Also, That's Not A Picture From My Gameplay. I Haven't Gotten That Far Yet. Not This Playthrough Of The Series Anyway LOL. It's Just A Picture I Found Online. I Really Need To Get On The Ball With Playing The Series Again. Anyway...

What Do You Guys Think? How Did I Do?
