Well, this is pretty nerve-wracking, but I finally uploaded some music I composed. It's just four songs, between college and everything happening in Retrospec, I've been, well, pretty busy this year. But I hope to compose more soon!

Anyway... you can listen to them here. Please enjoy them.

And in less good news ... I had a rather troubling conversation with a ghost...

According to him, our Earth isn't what it seems. Apparently, while Recolle's real and stable, the rest of the world is actually a recreation of other Earths. It was made to be a centralized hub for planets across the galaxy that were destroyed, and Recolle's essentially the capital. It was all formed and balanced from the soul energy being generated by this city and the people here, and it's not exactly stable.

Good news, all the people outside of Recolle in this world are real, so it's not like our lives were fake. But bad news, if anything should happen to Recolle, the rest of the world would disintegrate. So...no pressure?

Oh, and has anyone heard anything about a river of souls beneath Recolle? A friend heard about it from another ghost, but we don't know much.

Sorry for all the troubling news. This isn't how I expected this post to go.

Definitely.

[ He takes a minute to come up with more to say, distracted by the thought of his brother, Elliot's father, not existing at all in the reality Tatsuo remembers. He can't bring himself to mention it, it's better if the rest of the family doesn't know. ]

Recreations are slightly easier to accept after visiting that area from Eren's memories. It makes one wonder what world some of the other places originated from and if anyone we know was familiar with the original.

If our world is made up of recreations does that mean all the people are like us? Is everyone from those lost planets?

That's a good question. I know Big Bang Burger came from my roommates' other world, but I don't know about any other place.

It's possible? Though if this city is real, doesn't it mean that it was here and populated before this all started?

I think one of the other restaurants was from Derek's other world. He mentioned having memories of visiting the place for drinks.

What the ghost told you about it being established to be a central hub makes it sound like it was an original creation made for the collected souls to reside in. Recolle's founding families were the founders of Retrospec after all.

Oh yeah...I remember that now. The three broomsticks, right? I've been meaning to go...

Were they? I don't know the town's history every well. But if it was created by them, then why is it more real than other parts of this earth?

[blessmefather]

It could have been built rather than assembled from recreations. A one of a kind original? Barring the additions since the app launched.

Or something to do with the layers of reality? Recolle might exist on more layers than any other areas.

I guess that could be the case.

Honestly, it hurts my head to think about it too much. I am not cut out for astrophysics.

[blessmefather]

I could be completely wrong too. It's not worth the headache until we have more information. Elda's records have notes on the founding families if you want to know more about city history.

Ah yeah, you're probably right.

Thanks. I might read through it once I catch up on homework.
