Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

One of my favorite details from the old tabletop RPG Mage The Awakening is that souls are fungible. You don't need your soul back, you just need a soul.
Sounds a little like the fantasy novel Warbreaker, where the "soul" can be used to give life to non-living objects including corpses.
In setting that's different from the soul itself. Biochromatic breath is part of the spiritual plane, but it's a piece of Endowment, not the spiritual aspect of the person who has it.
Yeah but there were entire cultures that thought of the biochromatic breath to be their soul while others simply saw it as a kind of currency or fuel for their magic system. The world is very rich with different beliefs over the same thing.
The soul is a boolean function.
Your comment made me realise that I've been conflating the meanings of "fungible" and "miscable" for years.
