...I cannot say I had the same experience, but...

After we became ghosts, and I opened the connection to Eve. With all the curses flowing through me, I am fairly certain I should have died there. My soul should not have been able to sustain the energy that went through it. I did that fully expecting my soul to be destroyed. And yet, for some reason, I somehow survived. Certainly, I spent much of the time since then recovering, but...
