Its only long-lived up-tree that remains in the Ode clade is [[Warmth In Fire]], who was forked as a safety mechanism while it worked on an intense project involving forgetting a piece of information. | ||

On {{Systime|2181|11|14}}, Dear undertook a series of changes to do its best to forget [[AwDae]]'s name. It placed the name itself into an [[exocortex]], then forked rapidly over the course of some hours, changing its shape, species, and as much of its sensorium as it could. As exocortices rely in part on sensorium matching for unlocking, it eventually got to the point where the process of accessing the contents of the exocortex got too difficult to be worth it, and considered this a success. The instance it left behind chose to individuate, becoming [[Warmth In Fire]]. | |||
This led to Dear picking up an abiding interest in memory and the ways that it worked within the System. As such, it became one of the Odists most interested in [[Qoheleth (cladist)|Qoheleth]]'s scavenger hunt, looping in [[Ioan Bălan]] to help with the investigation. After the assassination, it expanded on Qoheleth's thoughts on memory. | |||
Despite the frustration of the events, this forged a strong connection between Dear and the instance of Ioan that became [[Codrin Bălan]], and between the Ode and Bălan clades as a whole. | |||
