The Temporary Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
The "The Temporary Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" event in Stellaris — flavor, choices, and how to trigger it with the event console command.
The Temporary Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

The final memory shows a much older Saariah in a priest's robe waking up in a state of panic, tentacles flailing and ears flapping. She stumbles out of bed and begins to frantically jot down her recollections of yet another nightmare in which empty-eyed aliens convulse on a habitat floor. Then her face contorts with horror as it dawns upon her that it is all real - the nightmares and the flashbacks are extracted memories coming back to her. And if extracted memories can return, the inhabitants of Ix Belèn could have recovered. The maintenance hatch appears to have opened one last time but Saariah's ship still remains docked at the landing. We could bring the Memorex with us back to …, if we wish.
