[He frowns, stares at a random screen across the room while he tries to work out a reply to that. It was a little more complicated than one might think.]

I... I know that from the point of view of everyone back home that survived that I was dead for five years, but I can't say for sure if... if I was there floating around in some afterlife or something. The only memories I have are of dying and then waking up whole again, nothing of the actual being dead part. So-- so it's possible that I could have just been brought back directly from here. I really have no way of knowing for sure.
