Do I get to pick my mother?
We talking rebirth with continuity of memory or is this a blank slate?
This is the essential question. Like, if I could be born into a super-wealthy family, the actual time might be less important.
Ha ha aye right Louis the 17th ๐
Maybe become the 16th instead. You could even vastly improve life for your subjects and still live in obscene wealth. Might even avoid the guillotine that way
No, it's only you who's going on a journey

Do I get to choose who I am born to? And is this rebirth or a blank slate? You didn't answer anything!
You get to choose who ypu are born to and it's a blank state
There is no discernible difference between being reborn as a blank slate and dying. Either way, I cease to exist. No thanks.
