Memory’s Last Scriptorium
In a world where memories can be erased, what becomes of the truths too painful to forget?
Elias Vey is a weary clerk at the Scriptorium, a sanctuary where people unburden themselves by having their most agonizing memories extracted, transcribed, and destroyed. But when he meets Liora Vale—a historian desperate to erase her grief—Elias begins to question the ethics of erasure. Together, they stumble into a forbidden archive where memories too dangerous to delete have been locked away, whispering of a hidden the Scriptorium was never meant to erase, but to heal.
As the mysterious Archivist warns them of society’s fragile reliance on forgetting, Elias and Liora confront a safeguard the comfort of oblivion, or risk unraveling their world by remembering. Their journey becomes a haunting battle for the soul of memory itself, forcing them to ask—are we defined by what we forget, or by what we choose to carry?
Memory’s Last Scriptorium is a philosophical and melancholic fantasy about grief, remembrance, and the redemptive power of stories. Perfect for readers of Kazuo Ishiguro and Neil Gaiman, it is a tale where every erased memory leaves behind a shadow, and every shadow demands to be seen.
