What are souls good for?

I'm playing Life & Death as spoiler free as possible, and two of my ghost sims have acquired an object called "soul". One bought it from Waylon, the other received it from a quest. Can someone explain in the least spoilery way possible what this object will be used for later? 

(I need to know because I'm also blogging my gameplay and souls being something you can "have" and trade instead of being what you literally ARE messes with my lore quite a lot. So if this soul object is just a crafting ingredient, I'd simply call it something else in my story. A coalesced chunk of memories or emotions or somesuch.)

  • Hmm... Least spoilers as possible...

    Well...

    1. Click on the mailbox.
    2. The Reaper career.
    3. Thanatology? Not sure about that one though...

    I hope I presented the options as least spoilery as possible...

    • Thank you, that was helpful! 2 and 3 are nothing the sims in this save will focus on.

      Will do 1 and see where it leads when I start my game today.

      (On a sidenote, story driven saves are fun, can be such a hassle at times, when such little things become a problem.)

        I went and tried option 1 and, wow! It's basically slave trading, but doesn't violate my lore. A nice option for evil/materialistic sims.
