Wur was being brought to her pod. To rest to recover. Her tendrils twitched, she reached to Ur-Im. She could not sleep yet, they had to deal with She Who Sleeps, She needed to take care of She Who Wishes To Heal?
He wishes to understand her worries and so she lets him see all that needs to be done.
She Who Wishes to Heal.
A young one, shards to be delivered to my pod, to bring her to She Who Sleeps...
He understands, he shall bring the shards. He shall bring her over. He, Where is She Who Remembers? He shall approach her to make sure it is done properly.
She, she is with they who remember war.
And that is all, her role shall be shared, and she shall rest. Stupor, to heal her. He worries for Wur.
gratitude.
And he sustains the embrace. As they return to Wur's pod. And help her sort through the shards for memories she wishes to integrate.

He Who See's is He Who Sees.
What He Who Sees does, when he has worked for the hive, acquired wealth. And has no immediate need for more memory he works to remember what is seen, and he creates and improves on the designs of his eyes. When he does not have wealth, he works to understand sight. Examining those memories, and perceptions. And the movement of what sight perceives.
And so he sees Ur-Im's approach, carrying a bundle of shards in the form of a pseudopod. That and a sail glider attached, and this one muddles the vision in a different way than the other ones.
He reaches to communicate. And inquires, what of the sail glider?
It is new and it utilizes different flows. He attempted to implement wheels to store some within. yet it is experimental, and he is not sure if he should introduce it into the hive at the hive's current state.
So Ur-Im has grown.
Yes, and Ur-Im has the wealth to acquire another set of eyes, and within a cycle of stupor or two, there shall be the resources available in the hive to create another set of eyes. And if the hive is in a better condition, he shall be able to provide the wheels and have enough to afford.

He Who Sees interrupted, he needs not know the mechanism, and when they become available he has the wealth to procure the resources himself.
But Ur-Im.
Ur-Im has a role, and the cost was paid to serve the hive in the role of He Who Sees. She would understand his feeling of debt, and he shall discover how to pay it through her.
But He Who Sees does not want this to stand between them.
Ur-Im sends Gratitude. And inquires on the shard collection sent by She Who Sees, for She Who Wishes To Heal. Ur-Im also needs the assistance of He Who Sees, to locate a visual marker.
And so they began on their way.
----------------------------------------
She Wishes to Heal. But at this moment, she is one of many. Siblings friends, learning and becoming. And slowly, that is lost.
For they are becoming something more, and in their limited memories, they do not have room for the thoughts of healing she shared with them. And she does not have the place for their methods and ideas, to gather all there is, to create great change. To live in the hive, and become wealthy with memory.
The thought appeals to her, to become like She Who Remembers, wealthy and full of memory. Satisfied.
But she who remembers is not satisfied, she holds the memories of others, and she works within the hive. And she offered to give much memory. But what role does she serve to gain more memory for herself?
Maybe She Who Wishes should pursue that goal instead, wealth, to help the hive she shall gather wealth and use it for what it is needed. Always keeping enough to remember others, to have these others last in her memories.
But though they cannot understand her in the fullest, they still care. And her siblings are becoming something new, and.
She shall heal so that they may continue to be in her life, so that the hive may continue to grow and prosper so that others shall find her worthy of a space in their memories.
But to heal is to repair and prevent damage to others. And though her siblings may not remember her after their next stupor, they shall continue to be. And she can meet them again. And, she cannot let them die.
And even if they will not remember her, there are those that might, there are others in the hive. And there are some are wealthy enough to remember. And some, she hopes, that will care enough to remember with the little wealth they have for themselves.
So she is pulled away from her siblings. And she inquires, from He Who Sees, were these her thoughts alone?
He responds that he does not have the understanding needed to guide thoughts, though he gave her what he had.
And the other one promised a small place in memory. A name for her, and for those who will be around her.
Did he guide her thoughts?
He did as He Who Sees did, and he provided understanding when she was unsure. But she could settle this on her own. Was she ready to go?
She was not, truly. She did not want to leave her siblings behind. But, she would have a name. And she is She Who Wishes To Heal. So she shall pursue healing.
And she enters the shards of healing, and the shards of understanding of the structure of the others. And the shards of communication, and of perception.
And many of the shards were missing, but she is grateful to She Who Remembers for what could be provided.
