Asriel never testified to any of these illusions, and the monsters never testified to Asriel acting strangely, as someone having hallucinations.

I DO believe Frisk's SOUL and determination awakened Chara.

Evidence for Chara's red SOUL trait is their tomb. It's not our tomb, it's Chara's. It has THEIR name on it. It's only empty because Toriel took Chara's body back to the flowers in the Ruins.

Chara's essence being awoken ONLY by Frisk waves a red flag, though..

Oh, and by the way, if you're new to the conversation, as long as you didn't just try to respond to one of our posts far down, I'll give you the benefit of not having to read ALL of those posts above just to understand what's even going on. And even if you were, if you merely responded to my main points rather than the quoted arguments, you should still be fine. This particular newcomer didn't try to directly engage into OUR conversation within the thread, but to the OP to start a new one here, so he's fine.

If you meant newcomers to the game, well, if you're a newcomer to the game, you should really play the game in its entirety before coming here. ...Though hopefuly the newcomer did indeed play the game, or at least watched someone else do it.

Now, the six SOULs seemed to disappear after the Omega Flowey fight. As soon as they left their capsule prisons is when they vanished. We have three possibilities, then:The SOULs do persist, but they all fly away, to some place far, far out into space, but the capsules entrapping them obviously wouldn't let this happen, they "persist", and then "vanish" into the afterlife, and the capsules entrap them in the mortal world, or the glyphs are just plain wrong, they don't naturally persist at all, and the capsules somehow keep the SOULs alive some other way.

Let's go over those three possibilities, shall we?

The first possibility starts out making the most sense if we solely take the capsules into consideration.. But then, they SHOULD naturally still be trapped underground by the Barrier. Better form a search party, monsters!

The second would explain why the monsters didn't try and/or succeed in finding the SOULs Underground, and would state that the capsules somehow prevent the SOULs from passing on into the afterlife. Perhaps by acting as a fake vessel, or by simply acting as an anti-magic field of some sort.

The third attempts to explain both at the same time, but then we have to ask why the monsters thought the SOUL COULD persist, and still begs us to question how the capsules are keeping the SOULs alive. ..I'm ditching that one until further notice.
