I completely understand your concerns and issues with the story, and there are no hard feelings about your comments or concerns at all. I appreciate all the feedback, good, bad, and ugly. I read it all.
Alexis is and will always be one of, if not the most important, characters outside of Rob in the Saga. Which is why she was forced in as a LI. There are a lot of things you all as players, are not aware of just yet. Some look to be one thing but will turn out to be something completely unexpected. This is a very supernatural, miracle-related story with twists on religious elements.
While I hate what I did to Kelly, it needed to be done for the path of Madison. I have my reasons, and I completely understand that you, as players, may not like any of them now, but I hope over the course of the saga you will come to accept them and understand why I did what I did. I did talk about this on my Discord a bit, and I think people started to see one of the reasons.
Now, Kelly's suffering alone is something that will be addressed and hopefully handled in a good way. She wants to handle the loss in her own way. She has Sylvia and Madison to talk with about it since they both know and both respect her request not to talk about it with Rob. They both understand it is not their place to share that with him.
Yes, Alexis will be back. Yes, she will retain her past life's memories. Now, one thing that I will say is that when Madison found out she was pregnant, she was told of one child. It was later found out that there is a second child, and the doctors were confused about how that happened. More about this will come out in the story. I will also leave you with one more thing: take a look at the size of the soul that was replaced, and look at the soul that was added, and the others that were shown so far. I just ask you to remember that, as the story unfolds, as not all is as it seems.
I get these things upset people, but please understand, I know the entire story, you guys only know what I have been able to share so far.
