The Ghost of Yet to Come: The Game of Fate
The future is not fixed. It is a field whose possibilities narrow as systems lose the capacity to adjust their trajectory within it.
Paper 4 translates the unease of Dicken’s final ghost into a thermodynamic reading of narrowing trajectories, probabilistic constraint, and the felt illusion of fate.
It sits between the witness of the present and the agency to come, holding the reader at the threshold where futures begin to feel inevitable from within a limited frame.
