Ontic (n.) is to be understood vis-a-vs ontological thusly: Ontically, I save for a pension because the old man who draws it will be the same person as I am now ('me'). Ontologically, he will be the same person as I am now because I am saving for his pension.
Ontic (n.) is something like 'factual as we generally understand the term'... it is contrasted with ontology which refers to a kind of human logic that is different from factual. For example, ontically, I put away money into savings because the old man who draws it will be the same person as I am now (this is a fact) . But the same scene viewed ontologically, focuses on the fact that the old man will only be the same person as I am now because of the fact that I am saving for his pension (this second viewpoin
