      Amen. It’s stupid on so many levels. But it seems like something GRRM world come up with. I guess with the right setup and framing it might work? But it’s probably been forever ruined by D&D’s idiotic execution of it.

        I makes more sense if Bran is on the Isle of Faces as a ceremonial king, which would give it the whole severed head Mabinogion vibe.

    Simulated universe theory removes so much agency and meaning from life.

    But we’re to the point now where were beginning to simulate universes of our own, and when you read about these things creating thousands and thousands of instances and spool that out into the future it’s pure hubris to think we live in the one true universe.

    Also the whole speed of light relativity threshold thing is obviously just a render gate.

      I feel like this is supposed to be a theory about George R. R. Martian’s book series a song of ice and fire or game of thrones.

      But that’s an interesting write-up none the less
