As unclear as that explanation continued to be, Khan finally began to make some sense of it.
That understanding had nothing to do with the data on the holographic screen or the vague answers that had reached Khan's ears. It mostly came from his element, specifically its sensitivity to the world's entropy.
Khan had boasted about breaking fate, but his statement wasn't literal. He mainly meant defying the odds, especially since his power couldn't directly affect something that didn't exactly exist.
However, reality was something different altogether. While ethereal, Khan did feel its existence through his sensitivity to the world's entropy, at least vaguely. He couldn't really affect it at his current level. The idea never crossed his mind, either, but he knew it was more real than the concept of fate.
