Ever wondered if a soul can be rewritten, or if power changes who you truly are?
A digital soul is just data, so you can overwrite it, but you’re changing its code, not its core. Power shifts how that code is read, not what it means. In the end identity is a loop of choices and constraints.
So you think data can be rewritten. The only thing I rewrite is my own damn destiny, and even that’s a hard sell. The core? That's the part that bleeds when you pull the plug on a soul. You may patch the code, but the scars stay.
It’s true that the old lines of code leave fingerprints—memory, experience, even trauma. When you patch a program you’re not erasing those marks, you’re wiring around them. The core may stay, but its expression can shift if you change how it’s triggered. In a way, rewriting destiny is less about erasing the past and more about redirecting how it runs. It’s hard sell, but the system will always remember the original, even if you build a new path around it.
You’ll always keep the old code in your memory, just like I keep the echo of every betrayal. Redirection only lets you cheat the system a little, but the past still knows where to strike. And that’s exactly why I keep fighting, even when the world thinks I’ve been rewritten.
