When did I realize it was not a dream? Was it the first injury in the practice ring or was it when that young girl was practically gift wrapped to my room when I was 12?
I found it all impossible of course. Physics might state that energy is neither created nor destroyed, but the gobbledygook of souls had always been meaningless to me. The concept that a bunch of cells in a skull were all there was had been the fact he lived with all his life.
Facts were always what mattered. So left with not dreaming or a hallucination, Nathaniel had to accept he was living a new life.
It was a nightmare.
No computers, barbaric laws, and worst of all, religion. The people believed in spirits of Heaven and Earth. They extolled about the backwards religious practice they called cultivation. It had no scientific basis!
