Yet Another Soul Jar

A topic from AEG's L5R CCG Rules forum, copied for Oracle of the Void from a copy of the forum saved in October 2015, so pages it didn't save are missing.

I understand that if I use Soul Jar, and move it to a different personalty, the personality brought into play with Soul Jar remains in play until the "current personality" straightens. However, consider the following scenerio:

1) Chuda Jack uses Soul Jar to get Daigotsu Bruce out of the discard pile. 2) I Kolat Forgery my own Soul Jar.

Now, the Limited action of bringing back a dead personality has resolved, with the condition that when "this personality" straightens or is removed from play, they die again. However, Soul Jar isn't attached to anybody any more, so that condition cannot be met. What then? Is Daigotsu Bruce dead again, or in play permanently?
