What I mean to says is that there was a car crash in the game and Paul was driving the car, got distracted with his chemical schematics. Also there was a drunk driver and Paul was trying to get away but the brakes failed. Due to which Esther Dies but Paul is alive. Then the Donnelly, it is actually you, arrived on the Scene, and then the Esther was cremated. You also go to visit Paul, sometime later and wrote a book a long time ago, which nobody has cared to read it. So you steal the book from the library and go to the island to isolate you; after you start talking about you (Donnely) because when the book was written you were different then what you are now. Then started observing an explorer, and decide to go back to a familiar place (the island), to stay alone on your last days.
