星核之燼Embers of the Star-Core
一顆熄滅中的恆星,一座靠記憶供電的城市,一個被指派去「回收」自己母親的少女。當燈一盞一盞滅去,她開始懷疑:被回收的,真的是記憶嗎?A dying star. A city powered by memory. A girl assigned to "reclaim" her own mother. As the lights go out one by one, she begins to wonder: the thing being reclaimed—is it really memory?
關於這部
《星核之燼》是一個關於「記得」與「被記得」的故事。
世界觀很簡單:恆星在死,城市靠人的記憶發電。當你交出一段記憶,城市就亮一點;交得越多,你就越輕,輕到最後會被風帶走。
主角不是英雄,她只是一個被排到爛班表的回收員。但這份工作這一次,派到的名字是她自己的母親。
慢熱、偏文學向,介意請斟酌。會持續寫下去。
About this story
Embers of the Star-Core is a story about remembering, and about being remembered.
The premise is simple: the stars are dying, and the city runs on human memory. When you surrender a memory, the city grows a little brighter; the more you give, the lighter you become—light enough that, in the end, the wind will carry you away.
The protagonist is no hero. She is just a reclaimer stuck with a miserable shift rotation. But this time, the name on her assignment is her own mother's.
Slow-burn, leaning literary. If that's not for you, read at your discretion. I'll keep writing it.
