Excerpt 9: A Thesis on "The Voice"

Excerpt 9: A Thesis on "The Voice"

Aug 17, 2022

“I must say, The Voice is a fixed part of our society. It informs us of our progress on our path and compiles our skills, making them easier to access. In a sense, we are dependent on the voice to perform as beings: we each strive to hear the voice sound in our head report that we have grown. However, what is this voice? Some say it is part of the guide’s blessing that is instilled within us all. Some say it's our imagination, but after extensive research, the findings of my team were shocking: The voice was different in each of our heads. After interviewing each volunteer, taking into account their path and their exposure to the path’s power, each had described The Voice as “my own voice but speaking from the back of my head”. Why is this, well, we theorize that the voice is our subconscious. It is true that the voice is part of the guide’s blessing, and there is the undeniable fact that the guide’s blessing affects our abilities. Therefore, why does it not apply to our subconsciousness?... And going beyond our question’s premise, is this the reason why remnants have such great power in exchange for their memories and identity?”

Is this starting to dive deep into the lore of the magic? Interesting on the voice aspect of it.
