![]() The ending is not only open-ended when it comes to the Time Traveller's fate it's also somewhat open-ended about the moral of this whole story. (Is he so happy that he decided not to come back? Did the Morlocks eat him? We'll never know.) It's curious that the narrator's main concern is "Where did the Time Traveller go?" not "Why didn't the Time Traveller come back?" While the questions are clearly related, this epilogue keeps us focused mostly on the issue of time travel and keeps us away from asking what happened to him. Which all basically means that we don't know where he is or why he hasn't come back. The unnamed narrator makes some guesses to show the range of possibilities: maybe he's with our primitive ancestors or dinosaurs (not at the same time, of course), or maybe he's in the nearer future. ![]() ![]() The Time Traveller disappears and never comes back. ![]() Seriously, what is up with that ending? It's very open-ended. ![]()
