- A borderline example in Nodwick. Zorion visited
the future and was upset to see there's only Dung Ages and a crater instead of his hometown now. How this could happen, indeed?
The links are broken and the strips here http://comic.nodwick.com/ don't include the relevant strips. Since tropes are used or not, not borderline, can anyone who has the relevant material sort out whether this is an example or not?
I'm confused by the bit in the trope description saying "Bob suddenly remembers how several months ago, some "other" Bob came up to him insisting that Alice was going to die of something and the two of them had to go save her, which they did". Everything else in the description, and all the other examples, suggest that this trope is when Bob's memories don't change - he goes back in time to save Alice's life, but he has to still believe she died, because otherwise he wouldn't have gone back in time, as described in the next sentence. That sentence appears to be regular Set Right What Once Went Wrong, or "You have now changed the past". I may be misreading it, but clarification would be welcome.
