Echo fits here, having begun as a human, birthed in the original human way by traditionalist parents. After many years of travel and searching for knowledge of his self and surroundings, understanding the services and functions of the Puzzlebox around him, he managed to transcend his physical body and its limitations by a single degree. This "free spirit" was then able to take form in whatever means could be negotiated with the Puzzlebox systems, but still relied on the devices inherent in the system. Now that Echo has been fully realized as an independent soul, these services are no longer necessary for survival or participation. Echo has come to the fullest realization of the soul, and now returns to interact with old friends with new capabilities; the services of Puzzlebox, including instantiation, are not needed, but accepted gratefully as from a friend when they are offered. |

The unchanging, orderly laws of the universe.
The state of the soul, having come to full self-knowledge.
The end of this reality and beginning of the next.
Finishing a cycle and bringing the seeker all fruits of immortal understanding.
