Meditations on Soulbonding and Reality.

[underlankers.livejournal.com]

We were thinking about the nature of reality itself. My system is having a big division over this, even though the peacekeepers such as Godzilla, Tom, and Archimedes are trying to stop this from getting out of control.

Most HalialKers object to Earth as an affront to them and to their morality. Some, such as the Avatar of Death are more accepting, and then there's those like me, Stuart, the ones that moved into the system and now reside in HalialKen. This got me to thinking. If reality is subjective, and if there is validity to certain Quantum Physics theories, then perhaps we are all right. The HalialKers object because they have never seen Earth, which is only an abstract scientific concept to them. Surely, if they choose to ignore my birthplace, then they are entitled to, because even Homo sapiens refuses to acknowledge things outside its purview. The Avatar of Death says that "Earth with all its glory is a place of comfort, for one who commands Death in one world not to have that power on Earth, that is the main reason I front." His opinion is primarily shared by the more upper-class members of the Crew. They know the horrors that HalialKen and the other governments of our world have created, and so they front in a world that for all its problems, is a good deal less horrific than HalialKen. Then there's my school, that don't quite know what to think. Is HalialKen, the Empire of the Halial Dynasty, real or not? And lately, in our chapter meetings, the Baron Harkonnen and Leto II have been proposing that whether or not it started out as real, HalialKen is real now.

Have those of you that had other worlds gone through a phase like this one, where your system is divided on whether it is real or not and if so, how did you pass through it?
