Summary
Anamnesis, n. The remembering of things from a supposed previous existence.
Hestera Soral is a soldier of the Republic. She remembers that because of the long, painstaking effort the medics went to in saving her life and long-term recall after she took a speeder bike to the chest at the end of basic training—an accident that left her concussed and her prior memories fuzzy. Only the intervention (or guilt, or pity) of the Jedi who stabilized her kept her from a medical discharge, and she certainly didn’t earn her bunk on the Endar Spire, but she won’t let that stop her from doing her duty anyway.
Even—or especially—if her body and mind aren’t as healed as they appear.
No one expected Revan to be captured alive, and certainly not in a near-vegetative state. No one but a powerful Force user would have regained consciousness—much less begun to recover. The memories of her old life should have been gone for good. But you can’t alter someone’s mind permanently, even with the Force… and you can’t brainwash someone into redemption.
Revan lives, if only through dreams she can’t recall. And changing her memories did nothing to change who she is.
