Phantasy Star, between Ra and the C's

[Asolsutsesvyl]

Homie. You are so close. Damn. Palma?

I've taken a more detached view to the curious inner symbolism I've experienced. But one part includes a very deep wound, emotionally having contracted into a deep knot of pain and grief, too large to be experienced at once.

The story of Maldek, Ra's version of the planet which blew up, includes the souls of the inhabitants contracting into a great "knot of fear" following the destruction, with a long time passing before they could go on to Earth to continue their lessons here.

Then there's the Cassiopaean version, which alters names and details related to our solar system. To add a bit more to that description, the picture of a high-technological civilization on Maldek, and destruction through technological warfare, is replaced by a picture of psychic warfare, groups of people working together in energetic co-ordination to blast their opponents with powerful black magic, the molecular structure of the planet deforming through collective negative polarization so that the planet explodes. The "knot of fear" is not mentioned.

(Everything tends to become more confusing when the sometimes strongly, sometimes subtly, contradictory presentations of Ra and the C's are both considered.)
