Time- 20:23     

Location- Sun Blossom City, Card Creationist Association, Auction house, West Wing Hall     

Accessing each other's thoughts was an advantageous effect of Anna and Ann's origin cards. Ann knew that her thoughts about the high schooler that Anna was dating would potentially get in trouble with Anna so she racked her brain and thought of a neat mental trick to keep Anna out of her mind which Anna found out when she could not access the thoughts of her origin card, pissing her off. Helpless Anna could only ask her young lover to help her keep tabs on the conversation between him and her evil twin.      

[Enough about Anna. Wyatt, you need to be very careful. We were able to clone Cole's memories before he was turned brain-dead. Going through Cole's memories we have discovered many shocking information about the organization he was working for. And they seem to hate you with a passion for some unknown reason.] Ann finally got to the part about why she needed me to contact her urgently. Hearing what she had to say I was stumped. Because being able to clone the memories of one of the members of the paw clan was a huge feat, and in the future vision seen by clown mask the southern royal family was not able to achieve this until it was already too late for them to make a comeback in the fight against the Matron and ultimately leading to their defeat and them running into hiding.      

Being able to clone the memories of one of the paw clan members meant that the southern royal family now had information about how Matron and her secret organization operated. Which was a huge advantage for the southern royal family which they did not have in the clown mask's future vision. If they were to make proper use of this information they will be able to be one step ahead of Matron but it was too soon to say that as even after knowing how Matron's secret organization operated there was nothing much the south royal family could do as of now as the hierarchy system in the paw clan was very simple, Matron was the queen and the rest were her pawns that could be replaced anytime. Unless they took down the queen anything else they did was temporary damage.      

[I think we were clear on them hating me with a passion when they sent about 3 dozen card emperors to assassinate me. In other news were you able to get anything else off the clone memories of Cole? For example how they operate or something like that?] I asked Ann even though I knew there was very little chance of her answering my question. The southern royal family seems to have no notion of involving me in this matter. If I had not uncovered Matron and her paw clan myself, Ann and I wouldn't be having this conversation.      

[I shouldn't be telling you this but the way paw clan work is like a sleeper cell and a guild. The sleeper cells infiltrate the big organizations, they, themselves, do not know that they are working for Matron and their memories get backed up with Matron every once a week. As for the regular members like Cole, they do not hold important positions in big organizations but they are capable and ambitious. They are aware of the organization and Matron's grip on them but they continue to do Matron's bidding to earn merits and exchange them for resources, just like how a guild operates but with very high privacy and encryption. And also the members only know each other by their code names. Making it very hard for us to track the other paw clan members we found in Cole's memories. A bunch of them are in the southern region, they could be part of the vassal families, branch families, military, or other authorities of the southern region. A few days ago they did not exist but now it is like they are everywhere, watching every move of the southern royal family. The whole family is upside down. We will have to revise every protocol and every important bill passed in the last decade. That is a lot of work, and there are not a lot of people the family can depend upon considering the nature of the Matron's origin card.] Ann explained but most of it I already knew and the rest was the same old. Clearly, Ann acted as if she had shared something important when it wasn't. But still, she did tell me more than what Anna or others were willing to share with me on this matter.      

[Then how does the southern royal family plan to handle these spies? Don't tell me you guys are okay with them roaming among you.] I said because I knew there was no way the southern royal family would let the enemy eat them from the inside out.      

[The royal family is monitoring every important card apprentice in the southern region, to see if there is any inconsistency in their actions. In case of any inconsistency that merits suspicion, the royal family plans to deal with them the same way they dealt with Cole. If the clone of their memories comes out clean with no connection to Matron whatsoever then good but if it does then the southern royal family's plan is working.] Trial and error method, that was what the royal family was planning to use against Matron's paw clan. There wasn't any way around it. Unless they were somehow able to identify if someone's memory has been tampered with.      

Think of this, a brilliant idea popped into my head. According to the findings back on earth, the memories of a person were contained in their brain's Hippocampus. A curved seahorse-shaped organ on the underside of each temporal lobe of the brain, the hippocampus was part of a larger structure called the hippocampal formation. It supports memory, learning, navigation, and perception of space.
