User blog comment:Rafe Adler/"The Big Empty" Discussion/@comment-3045936-20171103025304

Honestly it confirmed a personal belief. That the Empty is was or is, what is left of the collectively of the nothing that existed prior to God and Amara. And it’s cosmic entity, makes sense. As emptiness/nothingness isn’t suppose to exist, it starts to exist and what does it become when it does? So it describing how Castiel being awake as annoying and painful makes sense metaphorically.
