Comic Discussion > ALICE GROVE
Alice Grove MCDT - April 2015

--- Quote from: Gladstone on 02 Apr 2015, 20:09 ---So, we finally get a (vague) answer on who Alice is. But the real question, which I've been wondering for most of these last two chapters, is still whose story is this, anyway?
--- End quote ---
I had a theory at one point early on that Jack was actually the protagonist, and that he would become Alice's apprentice and eventually become the conscience that she apparently lacks. But then Jack was eaten by a piranha plant, or abducted by weird dogs, or at least turned invisible.
osaka:
All things considered, and given the massive mic dropping on yesterday's comic, I'm going to go with Alice being a manifestation of the world we're seeing. We should remember that the title is Alice Grove, not Alice's Grove.
Loki:
Jack lives in busland with Raven, the two of them happy ever after.

I still don't think she's either.
Schwungrad:
For the moment, I still favor the theory that she's a human genetically or nanotechnically enhanced to longevity/immortality and certain "superpowers" (like overriding Gavia's brand of nanotech). I get the vibe of some tech even more advanced than that of the Praeses civilization that was deliberately banned a long time ago.
Alice being an embodiment of the world or a force of nature, something akin to Tom Bombadil or Jones*, still seems more likely to me than her being an AI in an android body.
