[Intro]
[Gentle harp with soft violin]

[Verse 1]
In a blue house at the edge of town
A mother taught her son to weave
Threads of silver capturing what's passed
Memory's art, a sacred gift to keep
With nimble hands he learned her craft
While forge fires burned next door
Two families bound by more than blood
A boy with two homes to his core

[Pre-Chorus]
Then strangers came in darkest night
With magic meant to blind
They took his mother with a single scream
And left no trace behind

[Chorus]
I'm the boy that everyone forgot
Walking through a world that can't see me
Faces that once loved me look straight through
As if I'd never been

[Post-Chorus]
The silver threads around my neck
Hold all the truths they stole
The last Threadweaver's son stands alone
With memories none can know

[Verse 2]
The blacksmith taught him how to build
His son became a brother sworn
The fort still stands down by the creek
With both their names in wood still worn
But now they turn away in fear
When he speaks of what was true
The Oblivion Sect rewrote their minds
And tore his world in two

[Pre-Chorus]
He tries to make them understand
But memory's been erased
The boy who was like family
Is now a stranger's face

[Chorus]
I'm the boy that everyone forgot
Walking through a world that can't see me
Faces that once loved me look straight through
As if I'd never been

[Post-Chorus]
The silver threads around my neck
Hold all the truths they stole
The last Threadweaver's son stands alone
With memories none can know

[Bridge]
When Loxley came with hope in hand
A registry of those who still remain
The path ahead now calls to him
To leave behind these ghosts of pain
His mother's gift protects his mind
Her lessons guide his hands
The Archive's legacy continues
In this half-forgotten man

[Verse 3]
He leaves a woven memory
On the threshold as goodbye
The blacksmith feels a flicker deep
Of something just beyond his eyes
"Once we were family," the boy says
As he turns to walk away
Carrying with him all the truths
That someday might see day

[Final Chorus]
I'm the boy that everyone forgot
But now I forge a new path ahead
With silver thread and memory's art
I'll keep the Archive's flame

[Post-Chorus]
The Oblivion Sect may hunt us still
But they can't take what I've become
A Threadweaver's promise, a mother's gift
Remembering what was done

[Outro]
They may have made them all forget
But I remember still
They may have made them all forget

# The Boy That Everyone Forgot: Tallen's Journey

*"The Boy That Everyone Forgot" tells the story of Tallen Memorycatcher, a young Threadweaver whose world shattered when the Oblivion Sect took his mother and erased all memory of him from his community.*

## A Childhood of Dual Education

Tallen grew up in the blue house at the edge of Meridian's Crossing, where his mother Liselle taught him the sacred art of memory-weaving. With nimble fingers, he learned to capture emotions and experiences in silver threads, preserving what might otherwise be lost to time.

Next door lived the Mills family, who became his second home. Edwin the blacksmith taught Tallen metalwork alongside his own son Nolan. Together, the boys built a fort by the creek that became their sanctuary, carving their initials into its wooden beams.

*"Two families bound by more than blood / A boy with two homes to his core"*

## The Night Everything Changed

When Tallen was fifteen, his mother received warning that the Oblivion Sect had finally found them. With precious little time, Liselle created a special amulet for her son, weaving protective spells within its silver threads that would shield his mind from their memory-erasure magic.

*"Then strangers came in darkest night / With magic meant to blind"*

Hidden beneath the floorboards, Tallen listened as the Sect questioned his mother. When they performed their spell, Tallen heard only a single scream before silence fell. By morning, she was gone, and the town's memories had been reshaped to erase not just Liselle, but Tallen's place in their lives.

## The Painful Isolation

For three months, Tallen lived as a ghost in his hometown. Edwin, who had been like a father, warned him away from their home. Nolan, once his blood-brother, denied their friendship and claimed to have built their fort alone. Mira, who had once brought him sweet rolls, now whispered that he was "creepy."

*"The blacksmith taught him how to build / His son became a brother sworn / The fort still stands down by the creek / With both their names in wood still worn"*

Desperately, Tallen tried to make them remember—pointing to evidence like their fort, recalling private stories only family would know. But the Sect's magic was too powerful, leaving only momentary flickers of confusion.

## The Arrival of Hope

Everything changed when Loxley Threadtale arrived in Meridian's Crossing, following a hidden registry that marked Liselle as an active Threadweaver. For the first time since his mother disappeared, Tallen met someone who understood—someone who remembered the Archive.

*"When Loxley came with hope in hand / A registry of those who still remain"*

Loxley revealed something Liselle had never known: she wasn't the only survivor. Others had escaped the Archive's destruction. Loxley offered Tallen a new path forward: coming to Tinkertune Town to continue his training and help preserve the Archive's legacy.

## A Bittersweet Farewell

As Tallen prepared to leave, he left a memory-cloth on the Mills' doorstep. When Edwin found it, a flicker of almost-recognition crossed his face. With a simple wish for safe travels, Edwin gave Tallen enough kindness to carry forward.

Now Tallen journeys to Tinkertune with Loxley, his mother's amulet around his neck, determined to preserve what the Oblivion Sect tried to erase.

*"They may have made them all forget / But I remember still"*
