Hello, my dears. A small inquiry, if you could spare some time.
Like many of you, I am quite naturally curious about the memories we keep receiving. The impression I’ve gotten so far is that they mostly concern specific events and people. The one I’ve gotten so far, however, is a tiny bit different.
It is, simply put, the knowledge of the existence of a city. Thremedon, it was called - presumably a bastardization of the words “Three Maidens”, since the different parts of the city were called Miranda, Charlotte and Molly.
Has anyone experienced anything similar? That your memory is closer to dry facts than actual experience? Seems a bit drab, I suppose, but I find it interesting nonetheless.
Well, I did get a rather impressive bird’s eye view of the city as well, but I guess that could just as well have been a picture in a textbook for all I know. I’m an old pilot in this life, so it felt somewhat nostalgic, but the city looked like something out of another century, so that seems unlikely.
But look at me going on and on. I won’t keep you for any longer. Thank you.
[Why Is He So Pretentious? TL;DR he just wants to know if others have remembered facts rather than events, and used half a thesaurus to accomplish it.]
