I don't think that humanity, as a culture, will ever "become" that image. We're the kind of creatures that, unless something radically changes in our culture, is always searching for transcendency, which by definition is a step beyond. No matter where we are, we'll always be looking for the next thing.
Camber spoke to a lot of fantasy fans because he represented doing what he thought was the right thing, no matter the cost. . . and it cost him a lot. He wanted to see the Kingdom restored, and he bet everything on it. His own transcendency comes from the fact that he apparently continued doing that after his death. He went on to the "next thing".
