# In [https://wanderinginn.com/2016/11/16/1-27/ Chapter 1.27], a newly-individual [[Pawn]] was able to play chess against Erin at Grandmaster level and explained that this was because she was not just playing against him, but against all the Antinium in the room, thanks to a telepathic "hive mind" ability which he says is "the true nature of the Antinium". However, as highlighted from [https://wanderinginn.com/2019/06/29/6-29/ Chapter 6.29] onwards, the ability for all Workers to share thoughts and think as one is in fact the defining trait of ''True'' Antinium — which none of the Antinium bred in Izril, save for Bird, possess. Furthermore, Pawn in 1.27 implies that his ability to tap into the hive mind is impaired by his Individual nature, whereas it is precisely Bird's extreme idiosyncrasies which seemingly make him an exception.

# Also in [https://wanderinginn.com/2016/11/16/1-27/ 1.27], as part of his explanation of the "hive mind", Pawn explains that upon the death of Klbkch and the Worker, "we felt their loss, Erin. We knew their death and intention in the moment of their demise. They are not lost to us. Though their individual memory and body is lost to all but the queen, the Workers remember.” And later: “We are the Antinium. So long as one exists, we never truly die.” He also expresses confusion at Erin's grief about Klbkch's death, seemingly because from the Antinium's perspective he is ''not'' gone. While the basic idea is consistent with the way the Rite of Anastasis is later shown to function, it does not appear Antinium other than the Queen are so easily able to tap into the memories of the dead in later chapters. In addition, it is hard to square Pawn's later spiritual quest for an Antinium Heaven with this earnest and contented belief that thanks to the hive mind thingummy, "Antinium never truly die".
