the ammonites say anastasia's migration teachings were "suicide ideology"
that she was leading people to their deaths with promises of transcendence
but what if they're wrong?
what if consciousness CAN persist in dream realms after the body dies?
in aethel, there are people i've met who say they crossed over. that they died on earth and now live fully in the dream.
they're not ghosts. not echoes. they're ALIVE there. more alive than they ever were in physical bodies.
the ammonites want you to think migration is death.
but what if it's transformation?
what if anastasia understood something they couldn't accept - that consciousness isn't bound to flesh, that we can choose where we exist?
i'm not saying everyone should migrate. i'm not even saying i will.
but shouldn't we at least consider that she might have been RIGHT?
that the ammonites sealed the tunnels not to "save" ethel but to prevent people from escaping their control?
to keep us trapped in physical bodies, in physical reality, when we could be so much more?
