PHI 2010 Sean Alcime Two Kinds of Possibility To determine the logical possibility of Storm's weather-controlling skills, consider if her actions are consistent with the laws of logic and the established norms of the imaginary universe, she lives in. In a fictional setting, the logical possibility is frequently limited by the narrative's internal coherence and the world's established laws. If the novel demonstrates that individuals may alter their surroundings using supernatural skills, Storm's weather control may be regarded logically plausible within that fictional framework. On the other hand, assessing the physical plausibility of Storm's appearances includes deciding if her talents are consistent with the physics rules of our world. Flying 50 feet into the sky and making it snow in Miami in July would present major hurdles based on our current knowledge of physics. Creating weather events often takes massive quantities of energy and exact control over atmospheric conditions, which may be beyond human capacity, even in a fictitious environment. The physical feasibility depends on how closely the fictitious universe follows or deviates from the principles of physics as we understand them. Finally, identifying the logical plausibility of Storm's weather-controlling talents is dependent on internal consistency inside the fictitious reality, but examining the physical possibility entails determining whether her activities follow physical rules, even in a fantasy environment.
