Well, I say mana because it’s what I learned in my anthropology classes. What I mean, what it seems to mean, is a universal energy that is apparent in all things to varying degrees. Mana is within people, and can be used by people with the know how. So perhaps, a servitor is the user’s concentration of mana into an object or desire (i.e. energy onto will). In my own experience, it seems like the servitor (for lack of better word) I’ve used is, as I envision, a mass of cloudiness, but I give that cloudiness a persona of sorts and associated feelings that translate into the actions the servitor is meant to accomplish.
Perhaps it’s more important to ask, do you think consciousness is alive.
Personally, I’d say it all comes in degrees. Imagination can become action, fantasy become real, intent become action etc. When your degree of imagination becomes so much that it is affecting another human in a negative manner, then yes you should take a step back for a moment. Imagination on its own will not kill or ruin someone’s day.
To tie this into servitors, if you focus your imagination let’s say, onto an item so that that item embodies these thoughts of yours, then you are allowing that imagination to become reality and making your consciousness become a “living” thing.
An example might be a lucky rabbit’s foot. At first it’s just the rabbit’s foot, but as you keep it around maybe you’ll notice more luck coming your way, you’ll thank the foot, pet the foot to gain more luck etc. Does anyone else think that qualifies as a “servitor”?
Did we ever form a working definition of servitor? I feel like I’m vaguely classifying stuff that I’m not even sure what it is precisely. |
