Okay, as far as we know Yui's vision of post 3rd Impact was everyone joined in a mega-soul, unified into one being living in perfect worlds with no pain. Yui knew that if it was her son's vision of perfection that he would bring his mother back into his world if he needed her. So by leaving, Yui knew that she would always be there for him. However, Yui also knew that if Shinji rejected the perfect world and the unified soul that he would no longer need her. He would have developed mentally to a mature enough state to look after himself. This is of course assuming that Yui knew a lot, I think that we can assume safely that she does know a lot of this as she was privy to the Dead Seas Scroll's before Gendo was. As to people returning? Well Yui herself tells us that those with the will to live may return to do so. As to Shinji and Asuka populating the world? Doubtful, let's let them grow up first. -- Kind regards Disaster Disaster's Fan Fiction - http://www.disfanfic.net DSE - For the Public - http://www.disfanfic.net/DSE JAE FAQ - http://www.evafaq.com Pen^3's JAE FAQ - http://faq.pen3.cjb.net Convention Reports - http://www.disfanfic.net/conventions
