I'm here for answers...

Henry Townsend from Silent Hill 4... why was he here?

Well, "here" is relative since he never actually GOES to Silent Hill... like the woods outside are as close as he gets... and he's not much "here" by choice, he's trapped in his apartment, he's kind of here for Eileen but honestly, we abandon her all the time and the most he does is shamelessly spy on her through a hole in the wall and watch her get chewed up by a meat grinder if you don't work fast enough.

Honestly Henry is here to be the Sacrament of Wisdom, therefore to learn about Walter and all he was attempting, and therefore know the answers.

So he's here for answers.

And gets the girl in the end... kinda... if you really want her gimpiness...
