ourWorld

In most copies of this Writing, this locution is rendered as separate words — "our world" — an expression so general as to slip the bonds of meaningful terminology altogether.

The earliest extant rendering, however, makes it "ourWorld", which a sleepy copyist or dull-witted editor might easily regard as an error in transcription — or, to be fair, a mere eccentricity on the Author's part, insignificant in itself. Certainly it would be foolish to wax pedantic about so small a matter — if said Author were not the Last One, whose eccentricities are never insignificant, and his peculiar orthography might bear meaning here that it were truly foolish to pass over in such a patronizing manner.

It is not the only place in the archives where such orthography can be found: there are other instances in smaller fragments, mostly in those of older provenance, it would seem — though that "clustering" could itself be an artifact of their transcription.

Whatever the case, the older form has been respected here, restoring what is felt to be its technical sense in the Author's body of thought: a World of *our* making, as opposed to other Worlds that may exist — created, it may be, by Others we would do well not to disregard...
