However, he was stopped by gate guardians. “Who are you?” They asked.
The traveller pondered over what name to give. He just said the first name that came to his mind. Clearly he was looking at the carts, wheels, horses and buggies.
A few months later, he was pretty well off. He had friends and reputation. Money and a little bit fame. But the newly settled citizen of nuf decided that he still needs to be himself and so in the middle of the night he simply smuggled himself out of the land of nuf. Reentered it with a new identity...
So here is the crux, both the identities are in use. Both are active. Yet the second one is known more. Which one is the real him and which is the clone ?
He's Him. an Identity is just that, an Identifier. Its there for other people, it doesn't make the person someone else. I could go out and change my name, move cities and start a new life, but i'm still "Me".
Its just now how people address me has changed.
"Self" isn't something so simple.
