> Last night, I heard that the famous terrorist leader, Noordin M Top, had been finally terminated once and for all.
//FINALLY.//
> Yes, he used to be very tricky like an eel. Dance his way from town to town, disasters to disasters. The newest one was this. And he was planning another bombardment at "Indonesian" humans' Independence Day. This reminded me of the Din_Klayyaa Revolt very much, it's still fresh in my mind. She's a terrorist, just like Noordin. Poor Din. Both fought until their death.

But is Noordin dead?

First.
I don't think it was Noordin.
//Really? I think it was him.//
> I don't think so. It's not that easy.

Second.
Looking at both our race (Humans and Mahnus), both have reached a period where our civilization reached the top, and both also suddenly entered The Dark Age, where revolts and massacres occured, and most of both our history in that times were lost, remained unknown. But I found out that revolts in both our world always happened near before the fall.

In advanced civilizations, individuals' thoughts are free. Free from everything that bonds it before, thus some of them become unleashed monsters, uncontrollable. That's why the civilizations creates rules and norms, which bonds everyone, even the pioneer, to a path that they should be. Some lower their ego and follow the rules, fit themselves to the locks, and the civilization goes backward again. Eventually, they advance again, freeing several individuals, and the cycle goes again.

Noordin M Top is one of the bonded.

His thought is free, and wild. His thought infected a bunch of people through his ideology, growing rampant and the result is their devastating, mostly undetectable self - destruction in an attempt to reach what they called "heaven". This way, they've broken the rules in humans' world, and the authority tried to stop him. Several times he escaped.

But now, they said he's dead. I'm not very sure.
His thought never dies.
And I'm not very sure the dead was Noordin anyway.
And even if it's truly Noordin,
soon after humans' civilization reached its second Dark Age,
he will remain as an ideology.
He's nothing but a mortal. That is true, everyone's mortal.

But his thought is immortal.
//Altough he's mental.//
