Definitely a bigger risk than even that, with The Nothing involved. But I don't think you have the wrong idea. He is a Constellation, even if he doesn't believe that.
[a pause...]
There were these snowglobes early on that showed memories when people touched them. This place does a lot of strange things like that.
Because you don't need to rush this. Things like that can and will happen again, more than likely. Like opportunities to get items back home? And if all else fails, if you can think of something that might jar his memory from home, there's always the Suggestion Box.
Or MAYBE, in the theme of getting an idea of how to deal with monsters who are messing with things that aren't theirs, try COMMUNICATING with it? Just a thought! What's it doing with your stories?
How do you know you won't end up with a monster that will steal or eat or erase your stories the way The Nothing and the sphinx have with the others if you get rid of this one? You're really going to trust me to handle a situation where all three of you don't remember anything?
I want to be clear that this isn't me acknowledging that you're right. Because you're not. But there is a decent chance that if that happens, I'll immediately attempt to kill everybody in this prison.
Yeah no shit? So let me try to figure out a way to maybe I dunno do that dream thing again. Or figure something else out. Like I said, I don't really have control over that. But it can't hurt trying. Better than if you do something stupid like killing or getting rid of your dragon and ending up back with only the memories of up to your 3rd regression again or something.
Do it quickly. I'm going to start writing a guide to myself if I lose my memories, for one reason or another. It's likely I would just completely ignore it, but I'm going to try anyway.

no pressure, right?]
Give me some time to figure out if I even CAN on my own. My dreams are one thing. Other people's are another. Don't do anything drastic. They need you as you are now. Okay?

But I don't think you can view my memories with it anymore.
Probably.

Re: Day 23, midday-ish
I'll focus on getting my stories working in the meantime.
Which means killing this monster.
Re: Day 23, midday-ish

What's it doing with your stories?
Re: Day 23, midday-ish
You try communicating with it if that's what you want. I'm going to find a way to cut its head off.
