Tara A: I don't know! She and Jean had an argument, she went back to her apartment and then the Hand broke in and took her! They turned her into an assassin and sent her after her own fiance
Oculus: I can roll back her memory to before she was taken. She will forget everything that's happened after that. It would cure her but I don't know if its that great of an idea.

Tara A: We can't... Too much has happened to the rest of us because she was taken. If we took away her memory and she found out, she'd never forgive us.

Oculus: Which is why I thought it was too drastic. I don't have much experience with psychological problems sadly. Hmmm. *Thoughtfully* There is something else that could help. There is someone who could help but I haven't spoken with him in a long time. He might not even be alive anymore.

Oculus: He goes by the name of Ingenium. He was the one who gave me my name. Basically I'm sure you noticed that there are people in this universe with unique powers. Where those powers come from may differ such as those who draw from twilight and those who draw from solaris and luna. Most of us fit into one of three categories. Those who affect teh world physically like say making something explosive or creating ice or fire. Those who affect the mind like me. and finally those who deal with energy. Now of course there is some lee way between the different classes. Every single one is able to bend reality to "Port" Between locations and most are able to develop telepathy. Telekinesis primarily only develops in mind users. But anyway Ingenium is probably the most powerful person who is able to affect the mind. I'm sure you are aware of mind melds? He can do something far better than that and with it he could probably piece Clara's psyche back together.

Tara A: It's not that her psyche's shattered... she's traumatised.
*OOC: By the way, I should probably explain how twilight works in more detail, since it's a little unfair to expect you to know the nuances of a plot device first introduced 2000 pages ago.
Basically, there's another sub-dimension called the Veil which disperses Twilight energy throughout our dimension. Certain individuals contain a gene which allows them to manipulate this energy. The Veil isn't the only 'realm' where twilight existed, however. There was another called The Forge, home of the Shadows. These twilight users shed their physical forms and believed that order demanded total dominion of all life, using twilight to assert their agenda over others.
In the last Shadow War (20 years ago, about) the Shadows and Forge were destroyed when Sam delayed the destruction of a star just long enough for a Shadow Fleet to open a Portal to enter our dimension, placing themselves in the path of the supernova and causing it to destroy not just the solar system with all Shadows present, but also the Forge itself.
While I don't mind having other twilight forces, I just thought this might be helpful background to know.
Oh, also, twilight doesn't give telepathy. Tara A's telepathy and telekinesis comes from her status as a New-Type, a form of evolved human similar (though no where near as powerful) to Gary Mitchell.*

Jean, shaking his head: I never said that. I would never say that, even under the extremes of torture. They would have to kill me first.
*He kisses her gently.*
Jean: Did they tell you that? That I hated you?
OOC: Always wanted to write something like that.
OOC: But, surely if they killed him, they wouldn't be able to make him say he hated her... :P
*She lets out an affirmative murmur.*
