The idea that a disembodied consciousness could exhibit characteristics of a body is an interesting thing to explore. IT is probably because the brain is still connected to the body, but if it weren’t would the consciousness still exhibit said characteristics because of a lifetime of being connected to the body?
Interesting thought, though I really was not focusing on that part (really, was just a throwaway line.)
This scene was actually (with a few changes) going to be the start of the original ending of the storyline, though really that end no longer fits. I actually don’t know what the strange, cloaked gentleman is going to say to Noah, or what strange secrets he will reveal. Hha.
