The Memory Web

The Memory Web

The Memory Web is a visual map of every relationship in your world, found in the Atlas Memory Web tab. It shows how you, your NPCs, and their shared experiences connect.

The graph

Your player character sits at the center (gold node). NPCs arrange around you as blue nodes — the more you've interacted with an NPC, the larger their node. Connection lines link you to NPCs you've met, and NPCs to each other when they share narrative threads or memories.

Node types

Narrative threads

Threads are the system's way of recognizing that a series of memories form a story arc. When you have several conversations about the same topic or relationship, the system groups those memories into a named thread — something like "Growing trust after the wolf hunt" or "A dangerous bond."

Threads branch and evolve as your story does. A thread can be active (the arc is still developing) or concluded (the storyline has resolved or faded). Threads can also have successors — when one arc ends and a new one picks up from it, the graph shows the continuation.

Click a thread node to see its name, status, involved NPCs, and the full list of memories in the arc.

Shared memories

When two or more NPCs were in the same conversation, a shared memory appears between them on the graph. Click it to see each NPC's perspective on the same moment — the side panel shows tabs so you can switch between viewpoints.
