Unexpected... Accident?
What was the soul in reality? Although many tried to figure out this ancient question while also there existed many guesses all around the Dimensions, at the end of the day no one really knew the answer.
While a few considered a being's soul as a nonexistent state of one's mind that cannot be touched or perceived by any means, others refused to believe in that statement and feel as the soul was like a second form of one's life, but instead of being physical, it was spiritual.
Hence why there was quite a few around the Dimensions that believed in those seemingly absurd legends and myths about ghosts or entities that lurked in the dark that only a few could perceive, as many of those individuals considered them as souls, the second form of life that could give them the hope that life after death indeed existed!
But of course, those were only beliefs and in reality, no one really met with a real ghost, much less exemplified what the mythical soul was in true essence!
