Maybe Jacques, being Alvin, forces the salamandra to get him through the experiences he lived in his youth (however paradoxal that may be).
de Aldersberg must play though the events he remembers and chase Alvin around or the boy wouldn't have any reason to make the time jump.
whenever you're dealing with time travel you're bound to get those paradoxes.
That would certainly be logical from his point of view. Thanks.
If de Aldersberg was Alvin, he'd do all in his power to avoid contact and influence... so I think Salamandra (being just a tool) had their own plans. Simple as that.
Also, I like the paradoxal idea... if such a word - let alone event - exists. :peace:
If so, it would be great to know what were their plans! I understand all we can do is speculate, but what the hell. Any ideas?
I thank you for your time
