He is not sure if it is of excitement at having unlocked a piece of the puzzle, or of trepidation at the idea of being "concentrated".Wisco considers what he has seen and what was said again. The frequent forgetfulness, the gaps in conversation, the switching of speaker mid-sentence. Does the hive mind serve as some form of shared memory from which they can draw if they forget something? It would explain much, including the brittleness; a whole community slowly forgetting who it was. It was a horrible thought. And those 'who just need to get away', were they people who had lost so much that they just forgot who they were and wondered off?Should he accept the offer to be concentrated? There seems little point if I am self-sufficient. But would being concentrated allow him to share the Auger's memories and to understand what was happening here? Would it in turn make him vulnerable to what they are suffering? Would it help the Auger's be more resilient if he was concentrated into the collective? Questions that he needed to ask before he made a decision. But first he needs to confirm his underlying assumption."Does being concentrated allow you to draw on each others' memories?"[sblock=OOC]Assuming the answer is yes, Wisco will follow up with his other questions.[/sblock]</blockquote>
