Heavy Matter Universe

By Christopher Perguidi !

Title:

The Gravitational Web and its viscous liquid behavior :

Thesis Statement:

“The formation of black holes can be analogized as a density sorting process in space-time, where massive stars fall into regions of higher density, creating a vortex that warps space-time and eventually leads to a black hole. This process is analogous to separating liquids of different viscosities in a glass, where heavier liquids sink to the bottom due to gravity. This process may be related to the quantum foam concept, which describes the grainy nature of space-time at the smallest scales.”

Introduction:

Black holes have long been a fascinating topic in astrophysics, with their mysterious nature and unparalleled gravitational pull. This article proposes a novel mechanism for black hole formation, inspired by the concept of space-time behaving like a dynamic, flexible “jello” or viscous liquid and the analogy of density sorting in fluids. It attempts to explain the black hole paradox and give an idea of how black holes do not defy the laws of thermal dynamics.

The black hole information paradox has long plagued theoretical physics, sparking intense debate and research since S. Hawking’s seminal work in 1974!

The Paradox arises when considering what happens to the information contained in a matter that falls into a black hole.

General relativity suggests that this information is lost, violating the fundamental principles of quantum mechanics!!

We often imagine space-time as a flat fabric. However, we propose that the gravitational web that makes up Space-time behaves more like a dynamic, Viscous fluid than a flat fabric that is warped and distorted by massive objects. This gel-like structure is the fabric of our universe, and its behavior is governed by gravity and thermodynamics. We use the terms liquid, jello, and gelatin throughout. These are more like metaphors (!) and analogies to illustrate what we are conveying.

A Jello-like/Vicous liquid model of the Fabric of Space-time

Imagine space-time as a big bowl of jello(or a thick viscous liquid), where we are all suspended in a gravitational web. This analogy helps us understand how massive stars warp space-time, creating a vortex that pulls nearby objects.

This article will explore how space-time is more like a dynamic, flexible jello than a flat fabric and how black holes are not the same as heavy stars.

The Jello-like Fabric of Space-time Space-time is not a rigid, flat fabric but a flexible, dynamic medium surrounding us. When stars become too heavy, they fall through this space-time jello/viscous liquid (not a literal liquid), creating a vortex that drags nearby objects along as it ‘falls’ through time-space. This is similar to a bowling ball thrown into a pool of rubber duckies, where the ball creates drag and a vortex that sucks in and sinks the duckies!

When the stars become too heavy, they fall through normal space-time and into a place containing heavier matter.

Like dense fluids, heavy stars sink into a region of space-time where heavier matter exists, creating a kind of ‘gravitational stratification.’ This Separation is similar to fluid suspension, where denser fluids settle at the bottom while less dense fluids remain on top. Just as different fluids separate and form distinct layers based on their densities, heavy stars separate from regular matter and sink into a denser region of space-time. This Separation is driven by gravity, like settling denser fluids in a suspension.

*The Black hole and the heavy Star are not the same thing.*

It is like a bowling ball thrown into a pool of rubber duckies! The ball created drag and a vortex that sucked in and down the rubber duckies. This is what is happening with the heavy Star. It is falling through space-time and dragging down a nearby object.

Just as a heavy object falling into water creates a hydrodynamic drag that warps the water’s surface, a heavy star falling into space-time creates a gravitational drag that warps the fabric of space-time.

The Star’s mass and velocity generate a vortex that distorts space-time, much like the ripples on the water’s surface.

The black hole is just the wake of the Star falling through space-time, creating small tears. The information is still there—like a stone thrown into a deep, dark well.

Just because we can’t see it doesn’t mean it’s not there.

The Hawking radiation is an echo of the Star falling through time.

The information is still there.

It’s like a rock falling down a deep well and out of sight, but we know it’s there because of the echo.

The hawking radiation is like an echo.

The Rock falling into the well represents the information falling into the black hole, and the echo represents the Hawking radiation that carries the imprint of that information.

Just as the echo allows us to infer the Rock’s presence even though it’s no longer visible, the Hawking radiation allows us to infer the information’s presence even though it’s been scrambled and relocated through the black hole’s interior into the Denser area of the universe (maybe a separate spatial dimension )

The Heavy star falls into place in the universe where heavier matter collects.

Our thoughts are that this ‘fluid’ is either the electromagnetic sphere, Dark matter, the quantum foam, or some other undiscovered medium.

The Black Hole & Heavy Star:

A heavy star is a massive object that creates significant tears in the gel-like space-time as it falls out of regular space-time, generating a vortex that sucks in nearby matter and energy. This Vortex is the black hole, which is not a physical object but rather a region of space-time severely curved by the heavy Star’s passage.

A Wake in Space-time The black hole is not the heavy Star itself but the wake it leaves behind in space-time. As the Star falls through space-time, it creates small tears, like a marble tearing through or viscus gel or jello. The information about the Star is not lost; the ripples in the jello continue to propagate even after the ball has passed through.

The information that appears to be lost in the black hole is moved through the tears in space-time caused by the heavy Star, effectively relocating it to a region inaccessible to us.

Hawking Radiation:

An Echo of the Star’s Passage Hawking radiation is an echo of the Star Star Star falling through space-time, a reminder of the disturbance it created in the gravitational web. This radiation is a result of virtual particles that are “created” in the vicinity of the event horizon, with one particle being sucked into the black hole while the other escapes as radiation.

The Heavy Matter Universe:

The heavy stars fall into the black hole, separating it from our regular matter universe and entering a distinct dimension or branch of the multiverse – the heavy matter universe. This universe is governed by its own laws of physics, which are still unknown to us.

Black holes are not the same as heavy stars, but the wake they leave behind in space-time. The information about the Star is not lost; it is like the ripples in the jello that continue to propagate even after the ball has passed through. Hawking radiation echoes the Star’s passage through space-time, a reminder of the disturbance it created in the gravitational web. The information isn’t just preserved in the space-time ripples; it’s transferred to a denser region of the universe beyond our observational reach. The Hawking radiation is an echo or signal that the information has reached this denser region, much like the ripples in a well after a stone has been thrown in. The information isn’t lost; it’s relocated to a place that’s inaccessible to us. The echo or radiation is a reminder that the information is still present, even if we can’t directly see it. This heavier matter place of the universe is extremely hot and compacted with condensed gravity. This might be considered a separate dimension, as in some theories, like the Kaluza-Klein theory, where our 4-dimensional space-time is reduced to a lower-dimensional space, with the extra dimension being compactified or curled up. It is possible that the denser matter could be a manifestation of this compactification.

The Separation between the heavy matter area and the regular matter area (if considered different spatial dimensions ) Brane cosmology: In brane cosmology, our universe is thought to exist on a 4D brane, or membrane, floating in a higher-dimensional space called the “bulk.” As in Brane Cosmology, the denser matter could be imagined as existing on a different branch or in bulk, interacting with our universe through gravity or other forces.

The dimension containing denser matter intersects with our own dimension in specific regions, creating areas of higher density. These intersections could be thought of as “density nodes” or “gravity wells.”

In my fluid, dynamic universe, the interaction between the heavy matter universe and our regular universe resembles a cosmic lava lamp. Imagine the heavy matter universe as the wax in the lamp, dense and sluggish. Our universe is like oil; it is less dense and more fluid. When the “heat” of gravity or other forces is applied, bits of heavy matter “melt” and rise into our universe, like the wax in the lamp. As they rise, they cool and solidify, forming dark matter “globules” that interact with our universe through gravity. This process is akin to the wax solidifying as it cools in the lamp, forming colorful blobs that float and sink. The heat from the heavy matter universe is like the light bulb in the lamp, energizing the transfer of matter and energy between the two universes. The cosmic radiation and gravitational waves we observe may be like the ripples and waves in the lamp, caused by the interaction between the two “fluids.” Just as the lava lamp’s colorful blobs seem to defy gravity, the dark matter in our universe appears to defy our understanding of gravity and motion. But (it could) in reality, it’s just a manifestation of the dynamic exchange between the two universes, like the mesmerizing flow of the lava lamp.

Dark Matter:

Dark matter in the context of the ‘heavy matter universe’ and the cosmic lava lamp analogy. According to this theory, dark matter is formed when bits of heavy matter ‘melt’ and rise into our universe, cooling and solidifying (not literally) into dark matter ‘globules’ that interact with our universe through gravity. In this scenario, dark matter is not a separate entity but a manifestation of the dynamic exchange between the heavy matter universe and our regular universe, similar to the colorful blobs in a lava lamp. This perspective offers a creative explanation for the observed effects of dark matter, which has been a long-standing mystery in astrophysics and cosmology. By linking the dark matter to the heavy matter universe and the gelatinous nature of space-time, our theory provides an alternate perspective on this enigmatic phenomenon!

In this scenario, the information that falls into (actually through) the black hole is not lost but is instead transformed into Hawking radiation (or other forms of radiation, heat, or dark matter) through the process of entropy increase. This means that the information is not destroyed but (possibly) is instead scrambled and redistributed into the radiation. This resolution to the Paradox aligns with the principles of quantum mechanics, which dictate that information cannot be destroyed, only scrambled and redistributed. By showing that the information is transformed into Hawking radiation (and/or other things like heat, dark energy, etc.), we’re providing a possible solution to the long-standing problem of the black hole information paradox.

Dark Matter Replacement: alternatively, dark matter may no longer be a necessity to explain the observed phenomena. Instead, the heavy matter universe takes center stage, providing a possible solution to this long-standing puzzle. The Heavy matter universe theory offers a groundbreaking solution to the dark matter enigma! The unexplained gravitational pull can be attributed to the distant heavy matter region, eliminating the need for dark matter altogether. This means that the heavy matter universe is the source of the gravitational influence that shapes the large-scale structure of the universe and affects the motion of celestial objects.

Note: This ‘Liquid’ medium is most probably (according to me) the electromagnetic spectrum.

Heavy Star as Vortex Creator

– A massive star is like a heavy marble that warps the fabric of space-time, creating a Vortex that pulls nearby objects into its wake.

– The Star’s gravity creates a Drag Effect on space-time, pulling nearby objects into its wake, like a heavy object sinking into a jelly or fluid.

– Important Distinction: The heavy Star and the black hole are two distinct entities, with the heavy Star Star being the source of the Vortex and the black hole being the tear in space-time that forms later.

Black Hole as Vortex or Tear

– A black hole is like a region of space-time where the Vortex created by the heavy Star becomes so strong that it Tears space-time, forming a hole or void that traps everything that enters. Like a cosmic whirlpool or maybe a sinkhole

Discussion:

Our theory (we hope)resolves the black hole information paradox, reconciling general relativity and quantum mechanics. The implications challenge traditional notions of space and time, suggesting a more nuanced (and weird) understanding of the universe. Our theory could lead to a new era of research, exploring the intricate relationships between gravity, quantum mechanics, and information theory.

Analogy: The relationship between the black hole, information, and Hawking radiation can be likened to a rock falling into a deep well. Just as the echo infers the Rock’s presence, the Hawking radiation serves as an echo of the information that has fallen into the black hole, indicating its preserved presence. This analogy highlights the idea that the information is not lost but rather preserved or moved in a transformed state, much like the echo infers the Rock’s presence.

The information and energy are not lost, but they have moved out of sight like a rock at the bottom of the well, and some of it bounced back and transformed.

Note: though we use a Lava lamp as an example It could be that it’s a sphere-like shape with the heavy matter region acting like the earth’s core and are realm acting like the outer core and earth’s mantle.

My theory of the gravitational web and the heavy matter universe offers a new perspective on several long-standing mysteries in astrophysics. By envisioning space-time as a dynamic, viscous fluid and the heavy matter universe as a separate entity, I propose that:

– Dark matter is not a separate entity but a manifestation of the dynamic exchange between our universe and the heavy matter universe (1).Or the effect we think is dark matter is the gravitational effect of this heavy matter-verse!

– Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) could be evidence of matter exchanging between our universe and the heavy matter universe, like ripples on the surface of a cosmic lava lamp (2).

– Gravitational wave sources might be explained by the merger of heavy matter objects or the interaction between our universe and the heavy matter universe (3).

– The Great Attractor’s gravitational pull could be attributed to the heavy matter universe’s influence (4).

– The Wow! Signal might be a transmission from the heavy matter universe, echoing through the gravitational web (5).

– The Pioneer Anomaly could be a result of the spacecraft interacting with the heavy matter universe, altering its trajectory (6).

– The observed isotropy of the universe could be a consequence of the cosmic lava lamp effect, where matter and energy are constantly exchanged between our universe and the heavy matter universe (7).

The matter-antimatter asymmetry might be resolved by the influence of the heavy matter universe, which favors matter’s dominance in our universe.

By reframing our understanding of space-time and the heavy matter universe, this theory offers a new framework for exploring these unexplained phenomena. Further research and testing are necessary to validate these ideas.

Gravitational Phenomena in the Gelatin

—Gravitational Lensing: Light bends around warped gelatin, much like a spoon warps the surface of jelly.

– Frame-Dragging: Rotating objects twist the gelatin, creating a “drag” effect on space-time.

– Gravitational Waves: Ripples propagate through the gelatin, representing the disturbance in space-time produced by massive cosmic events.

– Space-time Curvature: Massive objects warp the gelatin, affecting motion and trajectories.

– Important Distinction: The heavy Star and the black hole are two distinct entities, with the heavy Star Star being the source of the Vortex and the black hole being the tear in space-time that forms later. Black Hole as Vortex or Tear

– The black hole is separate from the heavy Star Star, with its distinct properties and behavior.

– Information falls into a black hole

– It is transferred to a denser region of the universe

– Entropy increases, causing the information to be transformed into Hawking radiation

2010s in review

What a crazy decade this has been!
a little bit before this decade I started training to be a pro wrestler and began filming my first full-length film as a director but neither was finished till this decade.
My film the boys (now completed) featured me as the legendary serial killer known as The Angel.
it featured Mister Lobo and Ernie fossilise .

After training for what seemed like forever
I finally got to wrestle in the ring.
I gained four title wins across 3 promotions.

I also did a cross over comic with Steve Crompton available on Amazon.

unfortunately, this decade was also rife with tragedy as my grandparents passed away. granparents

Let us come together and have more zany adventures this new decade!

Cats a review

Coming into this film I loved musicals, movies, Andrew Loyd Weber and the feline species after this film you may hate all those things.

Hitting the theaters at the most inopportune time comes the Hollywood Adaptation of the musical Cats, Itself an adaptation of a collection of T.S Eliot short stories. 

Before the release of this film, I always assumed Cats was a beloved classic of stage, In actuality , It’s always been a bit divisive people either love or hate it. My younger sister and I would often watch the 1998 Film version on Pbs and had perused through Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats by T. S. Eliot, so I had a passing familiarity with the source material but that did not prepare me for the nightmare my mortal soul would face this day at the theater. Cats is a nightmare Howard P. Lovecraft may have had after reading too much Doctor Suess.

The film hit theaters as a huge flop (so far making only 12 million against it’s nearly 100 million dollar budget ) a big part of it was poor timing as it was released right after Frozen 2 and against Star Wars: Rise Of Skywalker.

Frozen Itself a musical with a huge fanbase one wonders how the person who decided to release the film during the run of frozen 2 wasn’t fired.

 Yet, even if the timing of its release was better the film would still have the unfortunate distinction of being the worst film to run in theaters of two different decades (!) as it’s December release will have it running in the last year of 0f the 2010s and the first year of the 2020s.

From the opening scene onward the Special Effects took us headlong right Into Uncanny Valley territory. The first number is Almost acceptable other than the camera shots right up and through the perfectly separated and lovingly rendered ass cheeks of semi-CGI CatMen.

We are introduced to Victoria an abandoned kitten who lands up in the turf of The Jellicle Cats. The term Jellicle Cats has confused many filmgoers and reviewers , It’s the name of their weird cat suicide cult. Yup, the whole film is about a teenage girl getting recruited into a charismatic suicide cult. The members gather once a year under a full moon for a Musical competition where the winner is selected by the Leader to die by being sent to the Heaviside Layer in a hot-air balloon. 

Quick note: The Heaviside layer is in the Earth’s upper atmosphere traveling there as a cat in such a manner I’m pretty sure would be the death of the hot air balloon traveling cat. 

After quickly dropping this info on us and giving many viewers no time to process this the film we jump to the most surreal nightmare fuel ever rendered onto the silver screen. We’re introduced to a classist house cat portrayed by Rebel Wilson. Rebel Wilsons Character Jenny Everydots proceeds to break into dance number where she removes her skin or maybe some other poor cat skin she took to wear . She then forces Fat mice with human children’s faces and cockroach people to dance for her for not being employed and if they don’t live up to her standards she eats them! This isn’t towards the middle of the film this is in the first fifteen minutes . You have to build up to this type of madness! I honestly almost vomited in this scene. I’m not going to break down the plot of the whole film but there is so much bad in the film that I could write a novel-length entry for each film. The Cats looking like cheap fur-covered blow-dolls with their constantly overly sexual gyrating are in no way arousing or appealing instead they’re distracting and nauseating. Reaction shots seem to be chosen at random and have no connection to what’s actually being reacted to! The female lead Victoria played by Franchesca Hayden constantly makes faces that seem right out of an erotic manga compounded by the fact that her voice sounds like that of a small child and her form is that of a CGI anime cat girl sex doll one is left deeply confused on how you are supposed to feel about this character, nay, the whole film. The film doesn’t just have an inconsistent tone it seems to be completely tone-deaf. Sometimes the film builds up like something frightening will happen then nothing happens. Strange shaky go pro style filming that makes you think characters are being pursued when again nothing is happening. You would think this film was made by Tobe Hooper the director of Texas Chainsaw Massacre and not Tom Hopper the director of Les Misérables.

The cats constantly change size, sometimes they’re human sized, sometimes cat-sized sometimes 2 inches tall. A male cat sprays magic milk on to the female cats as they lay on their backs erotically smiling as it hits their faces whilst he is singing of his curious nature. Taylor Swift sprays magic cat piss/ catnip on to the other cats in a golden shower scene. Who is this film for? children? adults? furries? It’s definitely not for everyone.

The oddest thing is this musical has all the things wrong with it that people say about the modern big-budget films have wrong . Nonsensical plots , a waste of award-winning actors, an overblown budget and a reliance on CGI special effects. Is this what they call Irony? I don’t know as I don’t own a thesaurus.

Judi Dench is actually incredible in the film as well as Jenifer Hudson and Ian Mckellen. Idris Elba is a perfect Macavity. To be fair, all the performers poured their hearts and souls into this film but it wasn’t enough to save it. Even Franchesca Hayden the film’s lead did a good job it just wasn’t a good film for general audiences. This wasn’t something that should not have had such a big budget and the film seemed to have no clear direction. Reaction shots have no real connection to anything and it almost seems as the poor editor had no idea what was happening in this film, perhaps, he was driven into madness like a Lovecraftian character glimpsing things beyond this realm?

It relies too much on the audiences familiarity with the Stage production. The Studio assumes that Cats is as popular as Captain America or Phantom of the opera, what they like to call presold franchises. Phantom of the opera was also made int a musical by Andrew Loyd Webber and then a film. The thing about the phantom is everyone knows that character and story from thousands of other versions and parodies. He’s a character loved by book readers, Horror fans and theater nerds alike. He’s able to bring multiple fandoms under one banner something cats didn’t really have going for it but I could be wrong maybe it’ll bring together such diverse fans as Furries, b-movie lovers and Musical theater geeks. I do feel like this will be the new generation’s Rocky Horror Or Plan Nine.

Sheena vs Fantomah

Welcome to my blog where I cover a variety of topics including comic books, pro wrestling and my life in general.
Todays Topic will focus on the 1930s superheroine Sheena and my personal Headcanon that the 2000s tv show was actually the character Fantomah.

sheena-queen-of-the-jungle
Originally comic books only featured reprints of comic strips that appeared in the newspapers.
sheena was specifically created for the comic books and was the first female superhero to have her own book named after her. Sheena debuted in Joshua B. Power’s British magazine Wags #1 in January 1937 even beating Superman to the funny pages.
Sheena was one of the earliest Heroes created specifically for the comic book genre by Will Eisner(creator of The Spirit), Jerry Iger and Mort Meskin guys who are considered comic book royalty.

Sheena-stories red hair
In a time when it was rare for any character to have a self-named book, Like modern characters who have great success, she appeared across multiple titles including jumbo comics, Sheena: Jungle Queen and even appearing in Ki-gor. She even had a line of pulps that inspired the 1950s TV show starring Irish McCalla. She was one of the first comic book characters to have a television adaptation and as far as I can tell the first superheroine to have her own live action show. Pre-dating wonder woman by over 20 years.

 

The premise of Sheena was that she was a young girl who was lost in the jungle being adopted by an African witch doctor
and growing up to become a Tarzan like an adventurer who befriends a big game hunter from America and they fight crime.
While clearly not the most original product It was marketing genius. The majority of comic book readers at the time were teenage boys. imagine the pitch “It’s like Tarzan but a half-naked woman instead of some 30 something British guy .”
Instant dollar signs. Sheena was and is so popular that she has been published/ adapted by almost every comic book company and even had an official crossover with Tarzan with painted covers by Alex Ross.

Sheena and Tarzan

The first film adaptation  came out in the 1980s starring Tanya Roberts who later went on to play in that 70s show. The movie was
clearly inspired by the film Greystoke from a few years earlier staring Christopher Lambert as Tarzan
This was one of the few comic book based films to come out at the time that even remotely had a budget
and it was faithful to the source material Two very rare things until 1989s Batman. The Sheena film even got the
honor to be adapted into an oversized Treasury edition comic book just like the film Greystoke.

Sheena Film 1980s

The film was rated G despite having large amounts of nudity and violence but its basically a Disney ish adaptation of a pretty edgy franchise. This film even played on tv almost non stop in my area and often even showed some of the nudity on tv but these were simpler times .starting in the late 2000s I would see a re-emergence of the film being played on tv. This seems to have been to get us primed for the second Sheena adaptation.

Starting in the Mid-nineties With Hercules the legendary journeys there was a wave of b-movie inspired tv shows with a strong comic book like overtones. They had a show for every genre, there was an Ultraman show for sci-fi, Hercules, Beastmaster, and Xena : Warrior Princess occupied the sword and sandal /fantasy niche, and even a Tarzan show. The biggest influence in this wave of cheaply done pulp-inspired
tv shows were Hercules spin-off Xena: Warrior Princess the show had great success and spawned 100s of clones and imitators .
Sheena was actually a latecomer in all this and even had a few guest stars from Xena.

heidi saha warren poster 2

While the show seems as straightforward as the previous adaptations and even seemed to be a continuation of the film
Things were not as they appeared. sure it followed the original plot of a girl lost in the jungle, raised by natives becomes
a female Tarzan and befriends an American explorer (reworked in this version to be an ex – CIA agent turned local guide )
but Sheena now had not only the ability to talk to animals she could shapeshift into any animal whose soul she
peered into, pretty drastic change from a girl who just was really good at tracking and fighting, In the original
comic she wasn’t raised by animals or anything sometimes she could talk to animals but I always took it as a skill
though sometimes writers presented it as a power she definitely couldn’t turn into them .

The show added a new power unseen in previous Sheena adaptations ,she could
become a demon like mud demon panther woman with claws called the Dahak Some people say her claws were cloves but they would just
appear on her hands. I mean clearly they were created by the actress wearing gloves but it seemed to me that they were apart
of her, like wolverines claws .She also lacked her animal print bikini which was even present in the 1950s adaptation.

You might think a bored writer came up with this out of whole cloth trying to jazz up the character for modern audiences but I think they were simply adapting another character. It’s pretty clear that The writers were familiar with the Sheena
comics, It’s a pretty direct adaptation of what you would see in them and Sheena was often collected in reprints
with other jungle girls (what the genre is referred to )

Fantomah

I honestly think that in their research the writers decided that an obscure but incredibly
strange character was far more interesting than Sheena that character being Fantamah.
Fantamah was created by the same artist as Stardust a man called Fletcher Hanks this guys basically the Ed Wood of comics if Ed Wood was even on more drugs.
Fletcher Hanks specialized in Surreal hyper-violent stories
about god-like heroes who were incredibly bloodthirsty.
Fantamah was just like Sheena but could shapeshift into animals and could become a
demonic skull-faced woman when angered …Sound familiar? I don’t think it is a coincidence


TVs last incarnation of Sheena shared so many attributes with Fantomah in my personal Headcanon she was actually the comic book character Fantomah.
Fantomah was even published by the same publisher as Sheena Fiction house inc.
she appeared in jungle comics #2 February 1940 and while falling into the public domain has gained a sort of cult following for her sheer bizarreness, which doesn’t even seem bizarre once you realized it was re-done as a Tv show starring a former Baywatch actor.
So for me even though the show was called Sheena, I sense in my heart that this was Fantomah Trying to re-emerge into public consciousness . Perhaps the spirit of the  of the Drahakna originally possessed Fantomah and moved into the body of Sheena.
