All things are ensouled, but some souls are more complex than others.
Some things have an external source and are not ensouled
Souls are perhaps an emergent property of life in some way?
Souls are a system of metaphysical particles?
Stars are complexly connected the the souls of living things on Kona.
Astronomical events tied to events on Kona
How does the Sun factor in?
Several Moons; different kinds of magic draw from different moons
New moon recently showed up?
Evil empire trying to conquer the moons and consume their magic
Different moons blocking out different stars have an effect on the status of Kona
When a soul goes to the Star, the Star stores their memories and other “gunk” and filters them out
Sometimes the soul recycle system glitches out and a soul is left behind on Kona
Every time a soul gets filtered through the moon, the moon deposits something onto the soul
Necromancy moon causes souls to bounce back to Kona. Lead? It's very visible, and when the moon passes overhead you try very hard not to die
Possible to miss a moon when you die, and it becomes a “pure death”. This causes a slow loss of souls.
Counteracting this, some souls get split and become two souls. (Soulmates??)
Another counteracting force; sometimes a soul from a different star arrives.
The cosmos as an orchestra - the cycle of reincarnation is playing another note in the melody of the cosmos
None of this is 100% predictable.
The sun adds more, fresh souls to the world. Festivals when these happen
The aurora are called “The Dance of Souls”
