I have read some trivia on wikipedia concerning the origin of the characters names in Eternum and found some really interesting passages. I will put them in spoilers because some of it could even hint at the endings:
I actually love that Cari took inspiration from the Odyssey, not only concerning names but also by letting himself be inspired by its contents. I recommend reading up about it, the possible parallels and conclusions to Eternums story are endless. It is obvious who I would choose out of the two options (or more) regarding the ending, though.
