Well, that has never been a concern for my kind anyway. It is simply an annoyance to be forced to start again somewhere else.

[you can practically see the "?" over yona's head at that]

Ah- our souls are rather persistent, you see, and do not dissipate with our bodies. The body you see me in now is a vessel, one of many I have occupied over the eons.

[just waving a hand, casually!]

I have 'died' many times before. Even should my soul be trapped elsewhere, 'twill be no great change.

[hence why he's fine with just planning what he's going to do over there, if nothing happens to allow him to live.]

[...huh.

that's... interesting, really! yona can't help but be curious about it. they may be straying from the topic here, but.]

Like reincarnation?

More akin to... possession, we shall say, though I must clarify there are not truly souls inhabiting the vessels we use before we take hold of them. I have always remained myself, with my own soul intact; 'tis only the body that changes.

I see... I've never heard of anything like that happening in my world.

There are a lot of really interesting worlds out there.

[arkitect]

...so there are. I should like to see some of them, eventually, and compare them to my own.

[dawnblushed]

I wonder if that's possible.

It might be, since we were able to come here. And, Sora said he's been to other worlds even before this, so there must be ways.
