Playlist: Music for a King — Song # 10 Remember Everything
Remember Everything is a song of pain from the viewpoint of a child who grew up unable to please his father. In chapter one, Pietas faces off against his father, the former Chancellor. As the current Chancellor, Pietas must oversee peace talks between immortals and humans. He and his father are yin and yang. Complete opposites on the spectrum.

Pietas dangled a length of fishing line in the water. “How good the weather is on this world. I’m quite pleased with it. If we have to be marooned here, at least we’re not facing constant storms or stuck in a desert.”
“I hope it lasts.”
“You think it won’t?” Pietas craned his neck, but in this part of the creek, under the canopy of trees, the sky showed up as blue specks.
“No place has perfect weather. It must rain sometime. Trees don’t get as big as these or the creek full without rain.”
“Ah, of course. I knew that. My mother is a consummate terraformer. She taught me about the cycles of life and renewal and how planets replenish themselves before I was ten. She made me learn the name of every plant and animal in existence, I think. I got caught up in enjoying the beauty and forgot my lessons.”
“You know, Pietas… It’s okay to admit you forgot a detail.” Six shot him a smile.
“For you, perhaps. Such excuses were unacceptable when I was growing up. Saying I forgot was equivalent to saying please beat me now.”
Six chuckled. “Sounds like a tough childhood.”
“You have no idea.” Pietas settled back against the boulder.
