MEMORY SOLD

Memory Sold

A near-future tale of pain, choice, and the price of forgetting.

Do you carry a memory that still takes your breath away?
A moment you wish you could erase forever?
If you could trade that pain for a happy memory-artificial, yet flawless-would you do it?

Memory Sold is set in a not-so-distant future where that choice is possible. A world where memory is no longer untouchable but treated as a commodity-bought, erased, reshaped at will. Memories can be altered, rewritten, deleted, as if they had never existed at all. No more suffering. No more trauma. Just a new, more convenient version of yourself.

Behind this mirage lies Empathica, a corporation that presents itself as a savior. It promises instant relief, erasing wounds and replacing them with carefully crafted happy memories-designed to make you believe nothing ever went wrong. A refuge too perfect. Because beneath its comforting surface lurks something darker: a deception capable of devouring what makes us human.

In Empathica's shadow, three fates cross paths and intertwine, drawn toward consequences as dangerous as they are unimaginable.

Three protagonists

• Ethan: a man who dared to place his trust in Empathica, convinced that erasing his pain was the road to peace. He believed he could silence the ghosts of his past by replacing them with fabricated memories of serenity. But every wound erased left behind a hollow space-and that emptiness now consumes him from within. Ethan bears the weight of his choice: no longer merely a man fleeing from his past, but a prisoner of the present that Empathica has imposed upon him.
• Lyra: a woman haunted by the remorse of having taken part-without even realizing it-in the horrors Empathica inflicts on those who entrust it with their memories. She believed she was working for a just cause; in truth, her hands brushed against deceptions far greater than herself, and now she carries within her a burden she cannot erase. She is torn between the urge to escape and the necessity of confronting what she unknowingly helped to create.
• Zeyra: a hacker with razor-sharp clarity and an unbreakable spirit, allergic to any form of conformity. Her sudden encounter with Empathica awakens an ancient hunger for justice. She does not back down before power-she dismantles it, line by line. Where others see walls, she finds openings-and truths that must be brought into the light.

When power feels threatened, danger takes shape: it advances blindly, crushing everything in its path. But when love, friendship, and intelligence unite, fear becomes courage, anger becomes clarity, silence becomes revolution.

That alliance turns into an unstoppable force, and even the most absolute form of control begins to falter. Fighting becomes a necessity-because in a world determined to erase you, the only way to survive is to remember.

Memory Sold is a gripping, timely dystopian thriller. A journey through ethics, technology, and identity. A powerful reminder of what makes us human: our past-even the parts that hurt.

When you turn the final page, something within you may have changed. You may discover that the pain you wished to erase is also what made you who you are. And the answer that once seemed so simple... will no longer be.
