Rui heaved a sigh as he put the high-minded metaphysical talk aside.
He didn't enjoy having discussions so devoid of any basis in empirical reality. He truly wasn't sure about anything, and there wasn't any data for him to even hedge his opinions on. The conversation was so fundamental that even the concept of data was undermined.
"Well, good luck with that," Rui said, getting up. "Let me know if you discover the ultimate secret of reality or whatever."
The Psycher raised an eyebrow. "Are you not interested in pondering the fundamental ontology of reality? Even if it has something to do with the Transcendent Realm?"
Rui directed a meaningful gaze at the Psycher.
"I intend to reach the Transcendent Realm and beyond. If this philosophical stuff is part of the path, then I will inevitably learn more about it. If not, then no," Rui answered. "I was there when Damian broke through to the Transcendent Realm, and I assure you that he didn't have any of these considerations, not once."
