"Why would you ask me such a thing?" "Until a few weeks ago I would say that there is no such thing as destiny.

Why does it feel like everything will be OK as long as we are together? ... You are a piece of me that I never knew was missing. Is this destiny?"

GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

It is said that you shouldn't meet your heroes. Gehaldirah, a high elf of royal bloodline didn't have to meet the realm lord of High Heaven before he became disillusioned. His admiration for the paragon of the high elf race turned into hatred when he got some damning knowledge about why demons kept attacking his home and looting the sacred tree of life. His hatred for the realm lord turned to self-hatred for his weakness and mediocrity. Gehaldirah had a moment of introspection. He isn't at the bottom of the ladder in this strength-based hierarchy. He is a king of law, but that apparently isn't enough to guarantee your fate. His strength is also mediocre because it was granted to him because of his bloodline. He determined he had to change himself. He has to become better. He concocted a plan that is one part genius and one part greed. His plan for reincarnation led him to the trial of heaven that occurs every origin cycle. He needed Origin essence so he participated in the trial. He got more than he wanted from the trial. His plan for reincarnation would be a success after some adjustments. But now he has a different aim. He won't aim for just the realm lord. The realm lord has control of the High Heaven Realm. That isn't enough for Geraldirah anymore. He became greedier. He has his sight set on the movers and shakers of the Void Universe. Only the power to subvert the will of World Gods will do. The plan to create LEGION, the ultimate organism was then hatched. If one person cannot achieve something, what about a multitude of them? His journey will not be easy. He will have to overcome Celestials and their Celestial Supreme, Gods and their GodKings, Demon kings and their Demon gods. The Void Universe is full of obstacles that will like nothing more than to put an end to his path. It is not that they hate him. They will oppose him simply because the era of conquest is coming. There are no friends in the era of conquest. It is everyone for themselves. And he will use everything and everyone for the advancement of Legion. AUTHOR: I cannot promise that you will like it. I can only promise that the book is original and unique. It is something new. The MC is neutral evil. He is willing to sacrifice everyone for his goals. He is smart and the antagonists in the book are cunning. Discord Server: https://discord.com/invite/yRbtBYsf Reddit Community: r/DMadLord/

How can one view history as 'fiction' as stated in 'and this like all history is fiction'?
2 answers
2024-12-05 00:46
History can be seen as fiction in terms of the gaps and assumptions. There are many missing pieces in historical records. Historians sometimes have to make assumptions to fill these gaps, which is similar to how a fiction writer creates details to make a story complete. Also, historical events are often simplified when presented. Complex political, social and economic factors are reduced to a basic narrative, just like in a fictional story where complex ideas are sometimes oversimplified for the sake of the plot.

Well, it might imply that the stories we are told as history are constructed in a similar way to fiction. Historians have to select what to include and how to present it. Just like in fiction, there's a construction of a narrative. And this construction can sometimes distort or simplify the complex reality of the past, making it seem more like a made - up story, thus like fiction.

This statement 'like all history is fiction' suggests that the historical accounts we have are not always pure facts. History is written by the victors or those in power at times, and they might distort or shape it according to their interests. Also, historical records can be incomplete or misinterpreted. We often rely on secondary sources that may add their own spin. So, in a way, it can be seen as having fictional qualities as it may not always represent the absolute truth of what really happened.

I don't think it's entirely valid. While it's true that historical accounts can be subjective and sometimes inaccurate, there are also a great deal of verifiable facts. Archaeological evidence, for example, provides concrete proof of many historical events. However, we can't deny that there are interpretations and biases in historical writing, which might give an impression of it being 'fictional' in parts.

It implies that the study of history should involve looking beyond the surface narrative. Since history can be like fiction, we should analyze different accounts, cross - reference sources, and try to understand the context in which historical events were recorded. For example, political or cultural influences on how history was written. By doing this, we can get closer to a more accurate understanding of the past, even if it's a complex and often subjective task.

2024-10-26 07:40
Well, history is written by the victors in many cases. This means that the version of events that gets recorded and passed down may not be the whole truth. It can be manipulated to serve certain interests, just like in fiction where the writer has an agenda. Also, our understanding of historical events is often based on limited evidence, and we fill in the blanks with assumptions, much like creating a fictional story.
