about six days ago?

six days in game anyway but it feels like six normal days anyway

be careful because they're aggressive and you can't hurt the ones with green shields. guild halls are safe so far

[secondthoughts]

Well, this sounds awful. Thanks for the heads up.

[ Green shields though, hmm... Maybe his little present can work against them, but he can think about that later. ]

You all guilded up and everything?

[legendofthelion]

yeah I'm fine when I need to rest

[secondthoughts]

That doesn't answer my question.

[legendofthelion]

it means I have a guild?

two actually

but if you need me a dm is faster in case I'm not around

[secondthoughts]

I don't know, maybe you were sleeping in the mall lol.

Same here. You know how to reach me if you need heals.

I didn't want to say this on the forums, with how
people are reacting

but before Mithrun lost too much of himself, he said the Wave might be coming

Losing our memories might be part of that

[legendofthelion]

no it's okay

but this is the first I'm hearing about a wave

did he say where he heard it?

[insinning]

He was speculating about it

That the Cursed Wave is coming. From the poem.

It feels kind of apocalyptic now, doesn't it? First the plague. Then we got stuck here. The monsters invading once safe spaces...

Now people are losing their memories or changing their personalities completely...

[legendofthelion]

right the poem

do you think lily put it in the game? it was only in the special areas right?

[insinning]

No

Emma Wielant wrote it. Zelkova
sees her as his mother, and says the poem is important. If Lily is also Zelkova's brother, then

he might be trying to recreate events in the poem

[legendofthelion]

or maybe it is someone in cccorp who was always going to recreate our poem

or someone who WAS at cccorp

lily's motive is hard to figure out but I'm thinking about harald

what do you think he and emma were really doing making ais like zelkova and lily?

[insinning]

I'm not a psychologist or a profiler, but i kinda put something together from what zelkova told me

have you heard of anthroposophy?

[legendofthelion]

nope

[Explain.]

You said a lot of people would miss me, right? I remember reading the posts on the forums, and I saw the talk of flowers. But I don't remember the flowers. I don't remember almost anything beyond Fragment.

I feel like, based on the things I've written in my messages, or the forums... I haven't forgotten too much that matters. I've met most of the people I care about here. And I accepted the loss, mostly, I guess.

But I feel a lot further away from people now. Even though I've only met most people here in Fragment. It feels like I've lost something fundamentally human; though, I guess it was never mine to begin with...

I still have some friends, I guess. And I'm trying to do the things I would do before, in Fragment. But I feel distinct now. Separate. It's strange. Even when I'm with Barrett I feel kind of alone. And I don't know if there's anyone else like me yet.

It doesn't make much sense, so it's fine if you have nothing to respond with. But I wanted to say it before I lost the words for this, too.

[insinning]

there's a book in the library now that talks about it but basically it's a philosophical way of thinking that asks us to study what it means to be human, what our basic needs are and how we connect to the world in complete freedom. It looks at honoring and nurturing the soul.

Emma was interested in that, and she was an environmentalist, working with an organisation known as Mama. She was also a nurse, but
Zelkova said she wasn't a programmer. Harald Hoerwick included her grave here in honor of her memory. Misteaks said that CCCorp is trying to digitise our minds, which sounds true. I told Mithrun before I think that our consciousness could be uploaded.

if Harald Hoerwick is trying to honor the memory of the woman he loves through fragment, it doesn't make sense CCCorp wants us dead or suffering. they want people to to embrace technology

and

lily is the one who is responsible for why hien and Mithrun are cursed

[legendofthelion]

but the real harald has been dead right?

even though hien was working under him so it's not really the real harald we're dealing with but it could be someone who knows about the poem

someone at cccorp doesn't have good intentions for us

mithrun got the special area that killed him for a while from lily too didn't he?

if lily has a grudge against cccorp I get hien but why mithrun?

[legendofthelion]

[Oh, Mithrun... she is so upset and angry on his behalf.]

I'm sorry

it looks like everyone is losing memories and you got hit more than anyone else

I can tell you some things about your real life if you want

it isn't all good but maybe the context will help you feel a little less alone?

[tablescraps]

( ! )

If you could. I think... I accept that maybe I am be what I am, from now on. But... I think I'd like to know a little more about what I'm
missing. I don't think I want to stand so apart.

Have you forgotten anything that distresses you?

[insinning]

I don't know. I don't think Mithrun was doing anything different outside of aggressively test the game for bugs but

it's personal with Mithrun, I think. Like wiping the slate clean and planting what he thinks is best

[legendofthelion]

yeah

I'm a little worried now lily might be doing that with everyone he talks to

[insinning]

they're all a little different, aren't they?

the only one that seems remotely normal is makoto

but even he had that wave mark under his eyepatch.

[legendofthelion]

I don't know makoto well

I guess the only thing we can do is keep an eye on them until we can find this lily

or the way out

[legendofthelion]

well it's like

the things I've started forgetting are too important to

it's like losing a part of myself

[But right, Mithrun...]

your real name is Morgan and you live in malibu

we didn't know this before the beta but it turns out I've been doing deliveries for a while for your caretakers

you know groceries and stuff

I don't know the details of how it happened but you had an accident and were disabled

[insinning]

Of those people, who are you close to? I think we should try to keep an eye that way. Remind them of who they are.
