Well, the short of it is still "Tohya contemplated what might happen if Eva, the only survivor, WAS a murder." Or something like that. I restate that while Tohya is trying to work through his memories (...or something), Hachijou is still out to tell a compelling story.

We'll never know.
Well he's not FORCED to do anything, Also, I forgot - only FOUR stakes were found in EP4, since Kanon was never found. And even then, all of their action in the magical narrative was superseded by Gaap and the Siestas. It was a conscious decision on his part as the creator.

EP4, while almost an entire blank space regarding what really happened, SEEMS to be a case where Shannon had everything under the control for the most part. Or rather, there seems little room to doubt any person over any other.
