the characters have always been dead, i think thats the whole point of the show. they didn’t die when the wilderness took them they didnt die when the real world ate them. they were already dead long before they got on the plane. i guess in a way it gave them a chance to become something greater something primordial and those who couldn’t adapt who couldn’t change they had no place there (maybe they could’ve been smth in the real world but this is the wilderness. adapt or die) but the others aren’t any better they’re living on borrowed time and sooner or later the wilderness is gonna want it back. they left it and took its secrets. thats not fair it told you those secrets so you could live and thrive in it, so you wouldnt die and leave it all alone again but you did and now it wants everything back
