No, ah, it's... complicated. Different? Maybe a doctor would be able to explain it to you a little better.
[ In fact a doctor would be able to explain all of this better to Xichen, but he's happy to share what he does know, if nothing else then so it keeps him distracted while the effects of the spice subside. ]
Ah, yeah. I've been told about the Force, too. I can't say I know much about it myself either. We generally lack anything like it in my world, at least anything that's quite so tangible.
[ Because the Force is tangible, even if it might only be accessible to a few; it's a real kind of energy that they can reach into, interact with in a way. Much like qi seems to be, from the way Xichen's described it.
Jim smiles a little at the last bit. ] Well, that is all science, nothing more. I can't take credit for it, only for knowing how it works.
