Yes, that's why I said it was inevitable but that I wanted it to be as late as possible.

Another reason I advocate meeting Charles and Raven is so that Heinrich could finally get friends his own age. Doubly good with them also being mutants which would be great on top of them being around our age. Raven would especially be a great friend to have thanks to her aging also being slowed down thanks as a side effect to her power and thus giving him a friend his age who could also live as long as him or close to it.

Inb4 she invests in forever 21 as a joke on Heinrich because of his problems with not aging!
[X]We should take a walk, maybe we need to clear our heads, and just think a little longer. Talk about what kind of person, we are, and how that affects us? Besides, what's the worst that can happen? (Starts: An American Telepath in Berlin Arc)
[X]Come with me, if you really wish to help bring justice to Nazis that deserve it, we can talk to The Old Man. He's been working with Israeli intelligence to start hunting down the War Criminals that went underground after the War. He Calls it Operation Eir, after the Germanic Goddes of Healing. They want to heal German Jewish relations, one criminal, at a time. (Starts: Vengence for Millions Arc)

Does Eric know that Heinrich was one of the people that killed Hitler?

No.
Only about 50 people in the world know of Heinrichs involvement in the July Plot.

What would Eric's reaction be to that once he finds out?

Eric: You killed Hitler?
Heinrich: No I was part of a vast conspiracy to kill Hitler. I just built the bomb.
Eric: I need to reprioritize where you sit on my personal hierarchy.
Heinrich: Please don't. I rather like being your friend.

Actually where would Heinrich end up on that hierarchy?

I'd like to imagine that that list includes many historical figures as well and Heinrich still being second on that list.

An American Telepath in Berlin 1:
You were quite sure that Eric was angry at you as you continued to walk, not saying a word to you as you both continued down the sidewalk of Berlin. Taking in the fresh city air, you could still see the devastation of the Allied strategic bombing campaign. Even with the streets cleaned up and cars, those that could afford the American imports or those that carpooled with the newest model of Volkswagon, with ten people struggling to stay in. Even with the riots blocking the roads.
It would still take time, but life was returning to the city.
"Is it really that hard to step away from revenge?" You asked. "I've seen what it can do to a person. How it destroys them from the inside out, and leaves nothing but a rotten, broken husk behind?"
"You have not seen what I have seen Heinrich. The pain you have suffered was not like mine, where every day could have been my last." Eric stated. "This isn't revenge, only justice."
"Yes, and how many times has justice been used as a catalyst for cruelty and misuse?" You asked.
Eric growled. "Be very careful with your next words Henrich." He threatened. "You were dumped into a ravine after being shot in the head and were able to escape. You didn't have to liberate yourself."
You found yourself shaking your head in acknowledgment. "I know. That does not mean we should look for justifications for our more base and evil urges. We must prove we are better."
"And if that means allowing evil to walk away? To hurt others? Then what?" He questioned.
"We must be ready to fight back." You replied. "Do not take my words as pacifism, or hopeful thinking. But you can't fight evil with evil, for only evil will be created."
"Than what do we fight them with?" Eric asked. "Evil proved it could only be stopped with violence."
You frowned. "I don't know."
Eric did not stop with his statement. "Don't lecture me about how to stop evil, without any idea how to stop it."
"What about being a symbol?" You stated. "Symbols are something that people latch onto. That inspires people to be better."
"I seem to remember one symbol in my life more than others." Eric shot back. "A Star of David, and a Swastika. Do not speak to me of symbols and their power Henrich. You want to change my mind on things that have already been made up. You refuse to direct my energies into stopping the evil that still plagues this world."
You stopped in front of a coffee shop, a cafe still under repairs but still keeping up in business on a good spring day. There were people there, though only two, a boy and a girl.
Both were chatting in English, and what few words you could pick up was just simple plans about what they were going to do in a few hours. The Opera was a word you picked up, and another was the cinema.
"Yet I will still try, because there is nothing good that one can gain from revenge." You stated.
You both sat, awkwardly being stared at by the two tourists. Both gazed at you, than at Eric, before looking back to each other, whispering something you could not hear or understand.
A moment later, the boy placed two fingers on his head, and you felt… strange. Like someone was touching your mind. Feeling your thoughts and desires.
What do you do?:
[]Allow it: You want to see what this feeling is, perhaps you can see it.
[]Deny it: You are not going to allow this. Push it out.

Based on the rest of what Heinrich said, I don't think that "not" is supposed to be here.
I might be wrong, but I think this was supposed to be "could only be stopped".
[]Allow it: You want to see what this feeling is, perhaps you can see it.
This is obviously Professor X, we should let him-
Crap! I cannot into social, help!
Calming down I assume? Missing parts
Swastika
Don't know if Charles is requesting access to our mind for telepathy or mind reading, or that our power is interfering with his and he's trying to read our mind. Leaning towards denying and just walking over though, we do have the advantage with Eric here.
On the social, we could bring up that "Stopping the Evil that Still Plague this World" isn't ultimate. Current plan is helping people be prepared for the current and future dangers. Might stoke Magneto though depending on how it's worded.

I'm not going to say, but considering that it's an option?
I leave it up to you to decide.
But really though, there will be a reward soon enough.
