Reality I normally define as "that which exists".

So if there was a lone being in a universe would that being not have a
reality?  Is there no reality for deaf, illiterate, mutes?

It's not the natural ordering of the integers, but the natural ordering of
each step in the states of a computation.  Though, even this does not
necessarily guarantee a "time-like" experience.  To experience time as we
do requires some memory and comparison between different states, and
perhaps some ignorance of future states.

I wasn't using this.

It is not clear to me what you are asking.
