Talk:Endless Summer, Book 3 Choices/@comment-35030122-20180411060208

So, everyone's freaking out about the three choices we have, and I've done some thinking about them and what they could mean along with looking at tthe opinions of others. So, I've come here to talk about what I think these three desicions mean.

1) "Rourke's project could be resumed and the Earth taken to a past it never had. Your friends will be as they were, and you will be with them...but nothing from La Huerta will remain."

So, my thought here is that, if you choose this option, you and all your friends will be alright, but that all the events that transpired are permenent: Mike died, you got handfasted, etc. It's also stated that nothing from La Huerta will remain, potentially even the devistation of the outside world. That could mean just the physical properties, like the island and the creatures on it...or it could possibly mean your memories too. That concerns me. I wouldn't wanna lose my memories of things, but that is a potential side effect to choosing this option.

2) "You have the power to reverse the vortex and preserve La Huerta forever as the Endless had hoped. The island will remain as it was, never again to be threattened by Rourke's machinations. You and your friends will be safe."

This one sounds almost too perfect. It's like option 1 but without the bad parts. However, there must be some catch. My theory is that choosing this option wll not reverse the damage done to the rest of the world, forcing you all to  remain on the island. I'm not sure how likely this is, but I have a feeling that there's some sort of catch to it.

3) "You return your energy to [Vaanu], allowing [him] to finally depart from Earth. [Your] conciousnesses will merge and all timelines become one."

This one seems like  a soft reset. Kind of like in Miraculous Ladybug: after they catch the akuma and purify it, Ladybug can reverse all damage done with her lucky charm. The only catch is that you don't stay on Earth: you leave all your  friends behind to become one with Vaanu, and everything goes back to normal: No one's dead, there's no catastrophic eruption in the world, etc.

These are just my thoughts, and I would really love to hear what you guys think.
