hey guys! i'm sora! i've been hanging out in this world for about five months now!

i wanted to asked everyone something that might help me figure out what i'm looking for. i wanted to ask what you think a heart is made out of.

and i don't mean your heart that makes your body work. i mean your heart. the thing inside of you that makes you who you are. that makes you happy or feel great. that makes you angry or cry. the heart inside of you that makes you part of everything around you or makes you see the light or darkness in your world.

i guess some people would call those souls? but i've always known them as hearts!

i wanna know what you think makes you, you. what your heart says about you! and how you think it got there.

let me know!

[oathkeeper]

they always know where to go? that's a good thing.

[tantailizing]

If the soul originally belongs to the planet, I think it makes sense it knows where to go, right?

[oathkeeper]

yeah! that does make sense! actually it kind of makes me happy to know that after it's all done that the soul knows where it can go to be safe too

[He might be wondering if it'll be the same for him? The people he knows? Wow, things are getting big brained in here.]

[tantailizing]

Now the real question is what happens to a soul not born from the planet if it's never been introduced?

[oathkeeper]

yeah... now that's a big question. or what about souls that aren't originally part of your world?

[tantailizing]

Isn't that the same question?

[oathkeeper]

like if i kicked the bucket in your world what would happen to me???

[tantailizing]

Yeah, what would happen? Maybe it would take you, but it could reject your soul. Or maybe you'd somehow end up back in your world?

[oathkeeper]

that's kind of a scary thought!! i don't wanna be lost to space or something!

[tantailizing]

Oh yeah, and it'd be a while till you found another planet.

[oathkeeper]

i'd like to think that if something bad were to happen that your soul would be able to know where to go! be it safe with that planet or going home! or maybe even staying with other souls we love

that's how i wanna see it

[tantailizing]

Yeah. Just have to make sure your planet hasn't been destroyed or anything then.

[oathkeeper]

uh yeah! that would be a good thing to know!

doooo you know about a planet getting destroyed???

[Zidane, are you okay??]

[tantailizing]

Huh? Oh, yeah, I do. It was a long time coming anyway. Their whole cycle stopped some thousand or so years ago I think.

[No big deal.]

[oathkeeper]

[That is a big deal???]

what a minute, was this your planet or a different one?!

[tantailizing]

A different one.

[His technically...]

Don't worry about it. It was killing other planets to survive.

[oathkeeper]

what... that sounds way too crazy. was everyone okay in the end? what happened? why was it killing other planets?

[tantailizing]

Not everyone but a good amount. It got destroyed, but before that, someone from the planet was hunting other planets and then fusing them together to prolong its life cause the cycle stopped.

[oathkeeper]

what?! that sounds like some sort of really risky science project! and really desperate!

[He can't wrap his head around this one!]

[tantailizing]

I mean, it was a project that worked until it didn't.

[oathkeeper]

not a very good science project if you ask me...

[tantailizing]

No, it wasn't. Which was why it failed eventually.

[oathkeeper]

kind of scary it happened in the first place.

hey, you doing okay?

[tantailizing]

Oh yeah, I'm fine. Are you? You seemed a little more panicked about it.

[oathkeeper]

i mean it's not every day you hear a story like that? i just hope it turns out okay in the end.
