Boundless Soul [bnha x modern!reader]

What comes first? The chicken or the egg? Much similarly: What comes first? The Soul or the body? The answer for the latter is simple, actually. The soul came first... And later takes the form of the body. Like water, the liquid fills the emptiness of its vessel. Now then, what happens to the soul once the vessel has been left uninhabitable? After the death of its vessel, people say the reincarnation of the soul takes place. There are the rare occasions when individuals are born with the memories of their past life. But what of it? What makes this story different than those? What happens when an individual is cheated out of their childhood, their dreams, and their future, all to appease the growing demands from their parents? Their life was robbed. Their life was taken. And now... what would happen when that same individual experiences that same experience under different circumstances? What would happen to the mind and body of the troubled soul who can't just seem to rest? This sounds like a never ending story, just like the philosophical question: What comes first? The chicken or the egg? Status: Ongoing Date Published: 1/31/22 Small note 1/19/25: I still need to edit the beginning chapters lol
