''Souls break, it is visible in the game why is Chara suddenly the grand exception? When a human or monster dies we see their soul shatter into pieces.'' You didn't get the point. Chara isn't exception to the rule. I am trying to point out that there are currently two types of death. Frisk's human Soul breaks because all attacks are aimed directly at it, even lasers. This is what destroys it. Chara has died because flowers poisoned and killed their body, not Soul. Humans in village injured Asriel's body and when it died and turned into dust, Chara's Soul stayed intact because it simply wasn't under attack. Also deprived of bodies Souls of six humans didn't break and are intact - their death was similar to Chara's and different from Frisk's deaths. ''But humans have one weakness. Ironically, it is the strength of their SOUL. Its power allows it to persist outside the human body, even after death...'' - Ancient Glyphs. Unless directly attacked and destroyed, Chara's Soul, the very culmination of their being, stays intact and operational - they are alive. It's heavily established Chara is deader than dodo, maybe not gone for good but dead yes he must certainly is. Dead but not quite dead. Noice.
