So, because I recently created a Thread about the game Indivisible, I read something about her inner sancuary which is interesting:

"The Incarnations Ajna absorbs live in this "Inner Realm," which gradually grows and evolves the more powerful Ajna becomes. Beginning as some rocks in a void, it will eventually develop into a safe haven and secret base reminiscent of Ajna's hometown."

Please note that if you were following the Indiegogo campaign, you would know thay each incarnation represent a already no fictional culture or a at least culrures which are a combination or a fantasy/sci-fi version of it.

......if you think about it, Ajna by the end of her journey will become the Nomad.

To put it simple, The Nomad represent ALL the different cultures of Earth. But he end up to a place with the name Rift. A place with many different destroyed universes mix together to create this chaotic place.

This sound like as if Indivisible game had a Bad Ending, the result will be the beggining of Middens.
Sound cool to me. What do you think?
 
A bit more explanation would be nice. You're saying that with all the different people of different cultures inside of Ajna she would eventually develop into a being that represented all cultures and/or belonging to a planetary culture?

Yeah, something like that. The real name he/she have is Time Nomad.
There are also many details which make sense why the developers from both games take inspiration from the same materials:

For example the Nomad summon three Proxies to help him in battle with the names Lam, Om and Yam.
one of them have Hinduism and Buddhism origin:
Om - is a sacred sound and a spiritual icon in Indian religions.

Also Genie, a alive talking gun which Time Nomad had with him/her, is connected with a Buddhism's philosophy: The Philosophy of Emptiness.

*From Internet*

"Śūnyatā (Sanskrit; Pali: suññatā), translated into English as emptiness and voidness is a Buddhist concept which has multiple meanings depending on its doctrinal context. The first meaning of emptiness is called “emptiness of essence,” which means that phenomena [that we experience] have no inherent nature by themselves.” The second is called “emptiness in the context of Buddha Nature,” which sees emptiness as endowed with qualities of awakened mind like wisdom, bliss, compassion, clarity, and courage. Ultimate reality is the union of both emptinesses."

"A human being is part of a whole, called by us the 'universe', a part limited in time and space.
He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separate from the rest
- a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness.
This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affectation for a few people near us.
Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion
to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty."
"Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one."

However there is a Bad and a Good side from this philosophy:
- The Good obviously that we are all connected as one.
- The Bad means real emptiness.

Genie, the talking Gun was something between: He wanted to "purge" [kill everything] in the Rift, to reach total emptiness and start life from the beginning somehow.....
