Fictional Narrative

"Fictional Narrative" depicts an interstellar empire whose thoughts are instantly unified due to quantum communication, but whose matter is disintegrated due to the limitation of the speed of light. The death of the leader was known to the whole universe at the same time. The crisis of succession and the expansion of religion started simultaneously. Local autonomy, the breakdown of trade, and the nomadism of the galaxy lead to the decline of civilization. The religious alliance maintains order by preserving memories and rituals, and the Lone Star becomes a witness and symbol. In the end, thoughts are still resonating, matter has become silent, and the rich history of human civilization has come to an end.
