  1. Beautifully done, but the thing that bothers me about this tale is that usually the "deceivers" are better at being deceitful. They actually offer something appetizing and appear more approachable to a child, then reveal themselves to be more menacing. Makes it less believable as a real story imo.

    Obviously I'm that guy that thinks everything in every story should be as realistic as possible.

  2. Did anyone noticed that the opening mirrored the time when Ethan woke up from the crash
    Blood from the bat(Ethan got a cut from the barbe wire)
    Dress from the bird(corpses of birdsin a path)
    Fin from a fish(dead fishes under the bridge)

  3. I just came to realize that the monster represents each of the four lords and witch is mother Miranda . The bat being Lady Dimitrescu. The weaver is Beneviento , the fish king is Moreau ,the iron steed heisenberg. Father being ethan and rose being the girl.

  4. Reference from Christian Mythology ,Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse:
    Dimitrescu: Famine
    Mouroe: Pestilence
    Heisenberg: War
    Donna Beneviento/Duke: Death.

  5. This is such a good story that gives a preview of all of the baddies that you will encounter in the game, but I can't help but point out that Lady D is personified as the bat lord, but is called the witch throughout the game. So is the witch Lady D or Miranda? And whose the girl? Eveline, Rose, sheesh, it could even be Ethan. So many questions. I believe the book was designed that way to make people theorycraft but then you realize that the reality is far from a fairy tail book. In other words, the game is a masterpiece.

  6. Everyone asking why would someone read a book like that to your baby ! If you are a evil creature more than 200 years old it is normal for you!!
    Guys that's not Mia!!!! It is Mother Miranda!! She was already there in Resident Evil 7!!! She switched with Mia!! It is Miranda( born somewhere in the 16th century) she needs the Baby for here Master plan. And the only reason she's not killing Ethan is he's the baby(Rose) daddy and she wants him to rule and be on her side. (he's not more a normal human)! Ethan should replace Heisenberg and take his place as one of the 4 rulers!!
