There is no purpose greater than fantasy.

That seems self-refuting. If true, wouldn't it entail purpose itself having no objective reality?

Cordially,

You are assuming fantasy is not a function of objective reality. It is the foundation of reality without which no intelligence is operative.
All intelligence is based on fantasy. Call it imaginative thought, creativity, leap of faith, whatever you will. One does not look at the stars without engaging in flights of fancy.
