In this particular rendition of the alternate ending of the chrysalids that I co-created (shocking i know, looks almost too legit.) I decided to pick up immediately where the story left off. So the setting is still in a fish shaped aircraft in which Rosalind, David, the Sealand lady and Petra are all aboard. The story ends by Rosalind saying "it is" which seemed to me like a peculiar way to end a novel, so I decided that rosalind was not yet done what she was going to say when she took an arrow to the knee... I mean throat. This is also a demonstration of one of the main motifs in the story which is indoubtedly death. Which happens so often in the litterary adventure that I felt the need to have 2 people die :) . Furthermore since it was implied multiple times during the story that david and rosalind had feelings for each other i felt it was almost a crime to end the novel without any character outwardly confessing there love and leaving us with a brutal cliffhanger. Thus cementing the need to add the cheezy hollywood ending.ps: Spiderman was not harmed in the making of this comic
