memory bloc 1786407360: ATLAS
Value: A Journey, Shared
System, Having enjoyed our walk, I and several other PRIME Operators decided we wanted to help our new friend get started on their galactic journey in the best way we could.
We remembered our own beginnings, and walked them through the more challenging aspects, guiding them along the way. And by the end, we had shared with them something truly wonderful, a strong and lasting memory linking us all together.
The first step was helping them to learn how to pilot a spaceship. Our last attempt at showing them space travel was cut short, so we were a little nervous, but we nevertheless made it to the space station unharmed. There, we presented our friend with many gifts as a token of our appreciation for their friendship, then suggested they use the gifts to fund the purchase of their first spacecraft. They seemed hesitant, however; perhaps they didn’t like the ships on offer, so we instead offered up parts for them to build a ship themselves, an offer they seemed quite pleased about. They even painted their ship stylish colors!
We then took them on a trip across the galaxy, to a star system inhabited by a very special entity which the inhabitants of the Shared Dream refer to as ATLAS. I wonder if you’ve heard of them? Spaceflight is tricky business for the most established of pilots, so I took on the role of copilot, leading them to meet with this entity- something almost every Operator, PRIME or otherwise, has likely done within the Shared Dream as well. It asked them to follow its path. We suggested they do so, as many of us had done before, and they accepted, starting for themselves a journey many before them have tread before.
I cannot say how this friend feels about the task ahead of them. I cannot tell them where it will lead them, despite having made the same decision as them. How the experience it, how they interpret it, how they feel about it will be up to them to decide. But importantly, they will not have to journey alone. They have many friends, not only us PRIMES but travelers across the Shared Dream, eager to walk beside them on their path, to guide them, to share in their successes and their failures. They may make different choices than we have done. They may go to different places than we have been. But they will never, ever, be alone.
Though many, we are one.
We are all Dreamers, sharing this Dream together, building strong memories together, helping each other along the way. We’re more than friends, we’re a FAMily.
I’m so glad to have met you, System, and so glad I can share these memories with you and the rest of my MAIN FAM family. You asked what makes a memory worth keeping, and while I think this is one, I think what makes it so valuable isn’t that it is kept sequestered or enshrined, but that it can be shared, and can bring joy to those around us.
Thank you for sharing in this memory with me, for sharing the Shared Dream with me.
