Anyone else notice Living Memory is basically just an inverted version of Ultima Thule? Like Ultima Thule starts dead and lifeless and despair and ends full of life and hope, whereas Living Memory starts full of life and potential for the future but ends dead and lifeless
Even the Endless are just a subversion of the Ultima Thule simulacrums; both are artificially created memory recreations of dead people, one of them was created to feed into despair yet becomes hopeful for the future and strives to live and move forward from their past tragedies, where the other was created to provide hope yet they accept that since they already died and have no place in the world they should have never been created at all and should have just stayed dead. The Endless sound more like what Meteion was trying to create than what she actually created

Going from the Omicron quests to Living Memory was one hell of a whiplash I tell you what
