Yun set off without much in mind, he had long left his place of study to explore and travel the world.
In the future, Dr Veritas Ratio would claim that,
"The Path of Erudition has neither reason nor logic. While geniuses wander among the stars, the ordinary can't even trace their footsteps. Those less gifted have no choice but to walk alone, enduring a lifetime of tumbles and triumphs."
Yun had unknowingly left the traces of light behind his steps.
Civilisations on the brink of destruction had been brought back to life.
Dying planets were revitalised.
He did not hide either. To distance oneself from reality and becoming a recluse, one will lose the direction of their purpose and research.
And so he donned what would in the future become a relic set, "The Wanderer Among the Stars"
He gave no name, but people recognised such a person could not be anything but a genius. Even ordinary pathstriders would recognise the intense authority of erudition shining from that key on his neck.
So they simply called him The Wanderer.
And on this day Yun arrived at a planet so similar to earth in a way. The setting was almost medieval and old fashioned.
Of course it seemed they were only technologically behind.
His identity this time was a wandering doctor. Someone who travelled the cosmos offering medical assistance to those who asked.
The village was beautiful, almost a reflection of the in-game Aedes Elysiae.
For once, he stopped to admire the beauty. He simply sat down to admire the scenery by the moor.
The setting sun slowly waved goodbye as he sighed to himself. Years had taken its toll on him. His preparations were almost complete, but now he faced another issue.
A loss of direction.
For a joke in his past life, people mocked the intelligent book worms. "A person who always thinks, in the end will have nothing to think."
Of course he too mocked the so called bookworms.
And here he was...
The irony.
The people passed by him as one person came to tap him on the shoulder. "Hello, you are a doctor right? We heard that you came from a planet afar from here."
Yun nodded as he replied, "Yes I'm a wandering doctor, I simply offer my services to those who would not usually be able to access such medical technology."
A small child soon bumped into him as the monocle slipped a bit. "Ophelia, don't run around. You hit this gentleman." The lady admonished this child who had just bumped into him.
Yun shook his head as he adjusted his monocle. "There is no need to apologise." He assured the lady.
The lady soon continued "I don't have much but I was hoping to get a checkup, my child has been incredibly forceful about getting a doctor's opinion."
The child, Ophelia, immediately looked displeased as she blurted out "My mom was diagnosed with amnesia. Please help us."
The lady gasped as she stared at the shameless behavior of her child.
Yun's lips curved up as he chuckled internally, such a shameless kid. I like that shamelessness.
Pride?
Valor?
Face?
What use were these concepts when you lose everything you hold important? Feed pride to the dogs if it means accomplishing your objectives.
Yun stood up as he brushed his pants before agreeing "As for payment, I won't accept money although I am famished. Would it be possible for me to mooch a meal from you?"
The lady looked at the two, they were so strange.
One was shameless enough to ask for help and the other was unhesitatingly rejecting money and instead wanting a meal.
"Of course, we are on the way back. I'd love for you to join us." The lady led the way as her kid followed from behind.
Time passed as it was soon dinner time and the lady realised this guy was disgustingly honest. When he said he was hungry and money was of no use he had meant it.
This wanderer had consumed mass amounts of food as he sat there with a full belly and sighed in relief.
This guy must have died starving in the previous life.
A mysterious moment was captured by the two when it was time for the check up.
"Yep, amnesia seems right to me." With a few scans he had confirmed another doctor's diagnosis.
Yun thought for a bit, he didn't have much time on here in the first place. But memory bubble treatment seemed feasible.
Or perhaps a digitalised neuronal core?
Things weren't that complicated to be fair. It was really a matter of options.
Yun opened his mouth to speak "Well off the top of my head, there were a few options. All are feasible but I suppose the question is what is more comfortable for you."
The two brightened up "Really? There's a cure?"
Yun glanced with a sheepish smile "I haven't gone too deep into figuring out a cure, but if it solves your problems... Then yes." He responded as he explained their numerous options.
His eyebrow was raised "Are you sure? It's not as secure as the other and requires you to constantly back up your memories within the bubble." He questioned.
The two had agreed and opted for a memory bubble treatment method. To create a back up within a memory bubble using memoria to replicate her life experiences. And every day she would back the bubble up.
If she were to ever forget, then this bubble would utilise the surrounding memoria to fill in the gaps.
But risks always existed.
The risk for this, was that it was heavily dependent on the concept of a back up. What he was doing was turning the bubble into an cloud back up of sorts. When data was missing, they simply needed to copy and paste it into the missing parts.
But if they were to fail or forget a back up then those memories were lost so heavily dependent on the patient themselves making sure they were treated.
Naturally with her amnesia although gradual, who knew if it would accelerate.
This task fell onto the small Ophelia.
The two soon went to bed as he stayed up making sure no memosnatchers would be able to bypass his work.
While it was genuinely amnesia, for some reason, he believed there was a small chance that remembrance pathstriders were complicit in this.
He soon finished making the bubble as he produced a small bottle and took a sip of the juice within.
"Want a sip?" He offered the cup to the darkness around the corner of the kitchen.
And from the darkness the small girl Ophelia stepped out.
"Can you tell me a story? My mum forgot to tell me a story before bed."
