The Way of the Universe

•  

So, something that occurred to me is that I don’t think that we’ve really given potential fans, or donors a good sense of the Errant Heart universe. Sure, we’ve provided basic information about the setting and the general focus of the story. But I don’t believe that, at any point, do we impart a very good impression of how the Errant Heart universe operates or how it’s constructed, what are its rules, etc.

To that end, I wanted to make a post that might help flesh that out for anyone who is interested.

 

A while back, as part of a writing exercise, I wrote up a couple of scripts for a manga, or webcomic adaptation of Errant Heart. Partly for fun (and practice), they were intended to be hypothetical points in the story of Errant Heart that take place after the events of the Visual Novel. They were also designed to be entry points for potential readers—a way in which people could more easily access the universe of Errant Heart and become invested in the story.

And in the interest of giving people a clearer idea of the mechanics of this universe, I’m going to post one of those sample scripts.

This one in particular takes place after one of the four paths in the Errant Heart Visual Novel is completed. It doesn’t necessarily represent the canon universe, but rather, the results of one of the paths that a reader can take. Just keep in mind, that this will likely be somewhat spoiler-laden. Read at your own peril.

Something readers may want to do before going through this script is to glance through our forum post about Errant Heart. It provides a larger overview of all the characters, as well as some other insights into the universe and our creative processes, etc.

Also, that title image is an unrelated place-holder pic from the VN…but yet, still somewhat related to providing potential readers with the flavor of the Errant Heart universe.
