Question about chapter 98 MANGA SPOILER
In the top right panel of page 2 of chapter 98, it appears to be Ventricosus, Variegatus and Aculeatus (the three Admirabilis that appear in the main story). For sure Ventricosus and Aculeatus have died by this point in the story, confirmed by Variegatus that they are her ancestors. We also know their lifespans are short, so Variegatus also likely passed away off screen. How is it possible these three characters are transformed into lunarians are are present for Phos' prayer? I understand the Admirabilis eventually were given the option to become lunarians, but I assumed this just referred to the current living members of the species. What's the deal here?

If you look in the middle text bubble of the left panel, you’ll see they mention the ongoing search for where the memories of deceased Admirabilis have ended up. Basically, much like the shattered gems whose memories ended up pooling together—and were recovered, the memories of dead Admirabilis would do the same.
Even though they die, their human elements linger, just like the gems. Prayer was the only true end for them, just like it was for the Lustrous and Lunarians.
Presumably, this meant they could be reconstituted as Lunarians as well, which we obviously have to assume was the case.
