I should've addressed this yesterday when I first thought to: I've seen the memory metaphor in the Academy, and although it's a fairly cheesy explanation it works fine. I don't however remember word one about memories from past lives, just 'past memories', which merely implies things your character learned before going out on his own.

If you've seen anything in the Academy that actually mentions past lives, I'd like to know what it is. I'm sure some of the Imms would also, as I believe they didn't intend any reference to past lives and would probably like to correct those references if they exist.
