Narratorans

Narratorans are a hypothetical concept referring to sentient beings whose primary mode of interaction with the world and each other is through storytelling and narrative. In this conceptual framework, their existence, memories, and even their physical forms are shaped and maintained by the stories that are told about them. A narratoran's reality is not derived from objective observation but from the collective and individual narratives that encompass them.

The core idea behind narratorans suggests that if a being is consistently and universally described in a certain way, that description becomes their reality. Conversely, a lack of narrative or a contradictory narrative could lead to their fading, alteration, or even non-existence. This concept explores themes of identity, perception, and the power of language and collective belief. It delves into what it means to "be" if one's existence is contingent on being perceived and described.

Within such a framework, memory might not be an internal neurological process but rather a record of stories told about past events involving the narratoran. Their understanding of themselves and others would be filtered through the lens of these narratives, potentially leading to a fluid and ever-changing sense of self. The concept of narratorans is primarily a philosophical and literary device used to examine the nature of reality, consciousness, and the fundamental role of stories in shaping our understanding of existence.
