She only knows that she HAS to find her sister agian, before her memories DO fade and before it's too late for them to have a life of happy memories together.
But before that can happen, Hope receives a letter from the Worldwide Memory Bank, telling her that her account is in disarray. She's picked up by an agent named Obleratta and hustled off to the Bank itself to sort out the problem. There she learns the process of how dreams and memories are kept safe.
