Just One Question... [[STORY THEORY SPOILERS]]

[loaf]

Difficult question to answer and I have never really considered that question before. Initially I thought it was going into the future a 1000 years like you said. But after reading what you just said I am not so sure. I don't really know but perhaps someone else could clear this up cuz I would like to know too.

We explained it to you already....read.

I've got the perfect analogy.

Think "The Matrix"

He wasn't transported into the future. He was dreaming about a past world his whole life, and that past world existed as a dream in the future.
