Ah, give me a moment here -- let us start with the first question.
The star is our world, the one we live on; there are others too, of course, but we have been satisfied with our own so far. And the soul is... a complex topic. Suffice to say that every individual has their own, unique soul -- what characteristics are inherent in the soul and which are not is quite the debate, so we need not spend too much time dwelling on the matter -- and when someone opts to return to the star, the soul remains intact while the flesh decomposes. One day, perhaps soon or perhaps ages from that moment, the soul will find itself reborn into the world to complete the cycle again.
And yes, food and water and the resources required to create and manufacture both. But there is also aether to be concerned about, though we have that in abundance --
( hm. themis laughs to himself, pausing, before continuing on. )

I apologize, I seem to have gotten carried away.
