Part 4 - Memories

[The Table of Memories contains two columns: The text of a memory that meditating triggers, and a rule that is checked to see whether the player is far enough in the story that a new memory can be revealed to them. The check is in place to prevent the player from just typing >MEDITATE repeatedly to get all the memories in one go.]

Table of Memories

"'What do you seek?' 'I seek the truth, shifu.' She hit me on the fingers with the head of her cane, like many times before. 'You say you seek the truth, but only lies come out your own mouth. What do you seek?'"	the first memory rule
"'What do you seek?' 'I seek power, shifu.' There is no slap on the fingers this time."	the second memory rule
"'The Universe has shown you some of its secrets,' she says, casually turning a flower into a guitar, as if to underline a point. 'But the key to true enlightenment is to observe the Pattern and to understand it.'"	the third memory rule
"'Leave everything you have and journey east. Climb on top of Mount Shanshan where you will find a shrine. By this shrine you shall contemplate about the Pattern and if you have understood it, you shall understand the Universe itself.'"	the fourth memory rule

This is the first memory rule:

This is the second memory rule:
