When the term world is used in Divine Blood, it doesn’t usually refer to the physical existence of the planet and other places in it. Nor does it refer to the various other shards of physical existence that orbit about the Earth. The term “world” refers to the collective perception people have of the way things are in reality. A person’s experiences affect how they perceive things and thus which world or worlds they fall into. Sometimes, an experience is so enlightening or traumatizing that a person has difficulty ever seeing the old world again.

These worlds separate people across distances even when they are in the same room. Two people sitting in the same physical location can look around and see two completely different things. Conversing across worlds is possible, but it is very difficult even when the individuals want to convey information to the other. In some cases, there is just too much of a distance between them to allow for communication. In the modern century, physical distance is growing less and less of an obstacle, but these immaterial distances remained and in some cases are growing more tangled.

The Divine Blood setting is both idealist and materialist. There is a physical, concrete existence, but the fact of physical location and environment have much less real impact on people and their actions than do the perceptions those same people have of the place.

I am not able to set Pay-What-You-Want on Amazon. $0 has also proven problematic there. So everything has a set price of $3 for novels and $1 for shorts on Amazon. You can still review on Amazon as long as you have ever purchased from them.

Thank you for your answer 
I told about Platon the greek master of the philosophy 
He gave us the idea that all is virtual ...
perhaps in other dimension we find the real world

Yes, it's one of the idealist philosophies.  I use a mix of idealist thinking (the world is in our head) and materialist thinking (the world is physical) in this game.
