I know I am not the only one to be suffering from suddenly having memories that are not your own. I am not sure what it is I am experiencing, whose memories they may be. They are very overwhelming. They are related to nations in Europe, Germany specifically. I will not discuss further details on a public network about the content, though.

What I want to know,is if this is happening to everyone, and if so, does this mean someone else is experiencing mine? If so, I wish to speak with you.

I am not even sure if I'm correct in this assumption. For all I know they're fictional memories, but something tells me they're not. Some seem too real, too vivid. At first I thought I was just having some strange dreams, but now I get glimpses of things I don't recognize while awake.

I wanted to be vague, as the memories are strange and some have been rather intense and terrible. If this is someone out there, "nations" will hopefully tip him off.

If we're really processing foreign memories as our own, I don't know if 'vividness' is a relevant factor. We're already proven to be unreliable.

...But I think you're probably right. ...I'm remembering things concerning people who are actually here, and they've been able to confirm things that I shouldn't be able to know.

Anyway, I remember wanting some hardware from Germany once. Probably not what you're thinking of.

[doesasordered]

Which is why I don't know if any theory can be sound until we can prove it. This place is unbelievably frustrating.

No, that's not it. These would be very old memories, some of them. Far enough back to remember Prussia, for one.

[otakuro]

...I think that's going a little too far in the opposite direction now. How many people have memories going back to the early 1900s?

[doesasordered]

I have no idea. But Hinoto-ri brings in all sorts.

but it's almost less like memories and more like some sort of film...

[otakuro]

It's incorporated pretty well, though. It's taken us this long to realize, hasn't it?

...Unless you mean the memory was of watching a film.

[doesasordered]

No no, that the memories are so strange, they seem less like memories and more like some fantastical story.

Perhaps that is actually the case. I am not amused either way.

[otakuro]

Oh, I see. I guess it would have to be so for some of these memories. There are people here from all sorts of places - I couldn't imagine getting the memories of say, the guy from the year 40000 and really being able to internalize them.

Either way, I'm not sure tracking down the source of the memories will do much. We're all equally clueless, I think... We have to figure out why this is happening.

[doesasordered]

I think that is why I'm a bit confused by these memories... Perhaps they're from a different world. Similar, but different enough.

Why does anything happen here? That's the million dollar question.

[otakuro]

...Nyarlathotep? Angry constellations? Bad karma?

[doesasordered]

Exactly. A ton of strange reasons. Always a puzzle.

[otakuro]

All of them at the same time.

...Nyarly has been pretty quiet for a while now. Maybe this is his idea of entertainment.

[doesasordered]

That's true. We haven't heard from him since the tower incident, have we?

[otakuro]

Right. ...I'm not even sure if we know for certain that he came back here with us, actually.

[doesasordered]

Not that I wish any more ill upon the people in that tower, I hope that he didn't.

[otakuro]

Yeah, I'm a little conflicted on that one. If he's not here, he might pop back in any time and wreak havoc. At least if he got dragged here, we could try to hunt him down and subdue him or something.

[doesasordered]

Yes, it would be better to know whether he's here or not in order to plan accordingly... Any way for us to figure this out?

[otakuro]

Do you know if they sell Evil Detectors? Like metal detectors but for maliciousness?

[doesasordered]

You may be on to something there. Maybe someone out there has a persona who has a power we can base it on. Early Nyarlathotep Detection.

[otakuro]

There's definitely Support Personas with some kind of danger sense. Identifying nearby enemies.

[doesasordered]

Maybe we're on to something here. Not that I have any idea how it could work.

[otakuro]

I'm... mostly joking, but hey, it's an idea. We can detect living beings with heat sensors and motion detectors and that kind of thing, right? Maybe there are some vitals that will betray Nyarlathotep - evil-o-meter or not.

[doesasordered]

We can always start of testing it on other "evil" creatures... Maybe certain demons would have a unique signature.
