He wonders if he cut everything, could he transcend to become something more? Or would he simply lost from the thought of everything, nothing to tether him to reality?
The string that he is seeing is different from the string on the soul. To create the soul, there must be strings
Because it is empty.
When it is filled with the power of the Laws, powers that makes him, him, filled with his memories, thought and experience, his emotions and all the things that makes him, him, a soul would be created.
At least that is the kind of soul he wanted to create.
But the strings he is looking right now, is the string that connected his entire being to certain things. You could call it Karma or you could call it connections
Whatever you wanted to call it, these are the strings that he could see. It is how his mind interpret this connection.
'Not complete' he said to himself.
