Description

Commission for :iconmithosandnai:

Text excerpt from the archives of MithosY, author and creator of Hex Pen, the OC featured in this picture.

The work is never done.

The film…the false memories…with these I can make a pony remember what I want them to remember. A horrible attack by a night-gaunt becomes a boring evening. A phrase of dark origins becomes a suggestion for dinner at a restaurant. A shoggoth appearing at the Gala is forgotten and adjusted.

The Truth fades into the void. I provide a new truth, and it becomes The Truth. Fiction becomes reality as reality is replaced.

And thus the work continues. And I have more material for my books.

-Hex Pen Lovecraft

Hex Pen’s job involves helping with memory alteration and incident clean-up. He’s shown here editing false memories; special film strips that are implanted in the mind to replace existing memories. When a pony tries to remember the event, the false memories are remembered instead of the real memories.

They’re great for making ponies forget stuff. Like where their keys are, or if they left the stove on, or if they were nearly killed by an Eldritch abomination from beyond the furthest stars. Especially if they need to forget somepony saving them, who’s part of an organization that doesn’t exist.

They’re not perfect, and it is quite painful when they fail. Imagine the strain of having two memories in the same place and time! It would drive you mad…
