Végzsség

Végzsség is a fictional concept originating from the speculative fiction genre. It describes a hypothetical phenomenon or state characterized by a profound sense of predetermination and inevitability. In many narratives that feature végzsség, individuals or events are depicted as being locked into a specific course of action or destiny, with little to no room for free will or deviation. This often leads to philosophical explorations of determinism versus free will, as characters grapple with the idea that their choices are merely illusions.

The term itself is often employed in stories where the fabric of reality is perceived as being rigidly structured, or where powerful cosmic forces dictate the unfolding of events. The consequences of living under the influence of végzsség can range from utter despair and apathy to a stoic acceptance of one's fate. Some narratives explore the possibility of breaking free from this predetermined path, while others emphasize its unbreakable nature. The concept serves as a narrative device to explore themes of agency, purpose, and the fundamental nature of existence. While entirely fictional, the ideas it represents resonate with ancient philosophical debates about destiny and the human condition.
