13->'''Marness''': And then… one day I realised I couldn't remember my life before Antimemetics. I knew I'd been a Foundation operative for decades prior — that was where I got the authority to start my own division — but there was nothing else there. It was a wall in my mind, which even [[PhlebotinumPills mnestics]] couldn't get me past. I went to the paper archives and looked at my own personnel file, and…\
