I think this is a natural process and what the amancers are doing is unnatural. When this essence or energy enters a being that has a thinking mind, a mind capable of remembering things in some way that memory is implanted on to the soul. The soul is the essence of all living creatures. Yes I am saying that without the memories from the mind that existed at one time the sould would have no memories. Hokay, I didn't write the story so anything I say is just my opinion, me guessing based on what my character does and what happens to him. You don't think the soul itself remembers, but the mind and soul together creates memories? So you are saying that you are meeting bits and pieces of spirits when you see ethereal beings that seem like they are stuck in another time? So I think there is a soul essence that when combined with a mind creates past life memories." Creatures with out an intelligent or semi[intelligent mind exist. If the dwarf on the tree is correct then souls can lose bits of themselves and gain bits of other souls. " The subject is not in my opinion a simple one. Their powers are limited I think to current minds. I do think that being a Watcher and having an awakened soul are two different things.Ĭiphers can see memories of past lives but seem not to be able to react with those. So I think there is a soul essence that when combined with a mind creates past life memories. The subject is not in my opinion a simple one. I think the Nine claw you meet outside the keep may be a spirit and also the mother you meet just before descending into the dungeon. I think you are dealing with an awakened spirit that remembers some of it's past live's but that is distinct from memories (as in the limited-interactive ethereal beings, or spirit "goo").Īpologies if I misunderstood the idea of Maerwald's memories permeating the Keep does make sense to me. Are you saying that the ethereal beings you see before Maerwald, but in his hold, are spirits, but when you meet Maerwald himself you are dealing with his memories? Wouldn't that be a problem for Maerwald since he would need his soul/spirit to be inside him else he is a hollowborn? Also, you meet the soldier and marauder separately, and wouldn't the marauder and the soldier need to be the same spirit for his part to make any sense? Nakia's explanation was harder for me to follow (probably because I didn't draw the same conclusion). Witnessing ethereal beings not aware of the current time, and not very interactive, are just left over spirit "goo", or memories of spirits. You are meeting spirits when you see ethereal beings that are interactive, and acutely aware of the current time, and your presence. Silent Winter's explanation sounds the same as what I interpreted. My guess is you see the spirits but when you meet Maerwald you are dealing with his memories. The memories are the awakened ones of your past lives. Good question, selectandstart, if I understand things correctly the Watcher can see spirits and even interact with them to some extent.
