The trials and struggles, the hard-won successes, the desperate battle for survival of Gabe Knight. He has fought the evil that lies in the shadows; now he must battle against the limbo of nothingness…
The Bavaria article is now up. I’ve focused on its history which has led to its current unique position in Germany, and in particular what led up to the formation of the monarchy in Bavaria. It’s an interesting thought that part of what may truly have led Ludwig II to withdraw from the political aspects of his position was that Bavaria was manoeuvred into a position without power, a throne without authority, a crown without the ability to decide.
In Ludwig’s time, Prussia’s desire to rule a united Deutschland had a disastrous effect upon Ludwig himself, I think… and perhaps this is what spurred Ludwig’s propensity for romantic imaginings into unacceptably eccentric behaviour.
Have fun finding the bits and pieces of Bavaria that provide a real backdrop to the story of Gabriel Knight 2: The Beast Within.

I dreamt of blood upon the shore,
of eyes that spoke of sin.
The lake was smooth and deep and black,
as was her scented skin.
A mask I wore as I approached,
I was what I am not.
And though the pattern was unclear,
its meaning could be bought...
