    how can a society or any sort of structure be maintained if you can’t remember anything? The whole premise felt a bit off.

    The rulers in the palace could remember, though (because of the shielding provided by some metal). And the workers/slaves remembered enough to perform their tasks.

        Hm, considering your instance name, are you reading this on Mastodon? I’ve not gotten the hang of how federation with Mastodon works, but I’m reading/writing this on Kbin, and the post is on Lemmy, in the discussion thread for the latest episode, where spoilers for that episode are assumed to exist without warning.
        In any case I apologize if you were spoiled by my post, but I’m not sure how to improve things in the future TBH.

      Just among the ‘field Kalar’, how are there relationships enough to maintain a population? Unless they’re just used to reading a piece of paper “this is my spouse, this is my child” and I guess the deep emotions they talked about as persisting fill in the rest. Still, I think it would be hard to build the relationships without those deep emotions in place. Sorta sounds like “50 First Date” (never saw it but the premise).
