Souls
Immortal inner selves
Souls is the plural of soul—the immaterial essence believed to animate a person and survive death.
The word appears in religious contexts praying for lost souls and secular ones not a soul in sight.
It can mean people generally: The town had three hundred souls.
In music, souls shortens soul singers or soul records.
The Dark Souls video game franchise has made souls a gaming currency earned by defeating enemies.
