@Arakhne

I see, thanks for clearing that out. I understand the decision from a game design/business perspective of course. I'm still gonna hold out some hope in my "destiny" plotline theory or something alike it addressing it a bit, but I can live with the game conveniently ignoring it.

Now that I think about it some more, there are quite a few things in the game that could support the theory. There is that conversation with Lucy where Simon lets her know about his concerns that he may unconsciously manipulate the women around him, Lucy points out that she not ending up with Orcent could disprove that, since she and Orcent had been shipped somewhat, but it wasn't meant to be and Simon's unconscious will didn't change that.

Back in the Ardford Summit Alonon flat out told Simon to not focus on the shard and that the issue was beyond it when they discussed how Simon kept running into situations where women needed to be in his companionship afterwards.

The last conversation with the Little Girl before the end of chapter 4 was also a bit suspicious, with she asking how Simon would react to finding out the women had been manipulated, Simon has seemly made some peace with the notion by stating that to an extent our entire being is a result of many manipulations, so if it leads them to a happy existence, is it such a bad thing?

I'm fully prepared for Chapter 5 getting into some heavy stuff man.
