Was the encounter with Raizel an illusion or was the carousing at the wedding-hall illusory? Was Dr Margolin the victim of the accident and was his astral body hovering in the world of Twilight?
Solution and Explanation
Yes, the carousing at the wedding hall was illusionary. Dr Margolin met with an accident on the way to the wedding hall and was the victim of the accident. Raizel, who the Nazis shot, was dead for a long time now, and Dr Margolin could see her because of his death. His astral body was hovering in the twilight world. Both were missing their physical appearance, and in fact, were in spiritual forms.
