virtuality
They all have their shining constructions, their beautiful conceits, their virtual dreams. The boy genius with the quick avid fingers summons the ghosts of temples and canyons from the air; the serpent-son conjures up a minute's nightmare or fantasy at a time; the Voodoo Child clings to her standards of professionalism as if those could create a life for her other than her destiny; the Thunder Emperor lays aside his crown and chooses to live fancies of idealism and morality and hope.
Kagami knows that his mirrors and the illusions inside them are real. He can touch them, after all.
