Memory Books

Spoiler warning:
The following page contains spoilers for the plot of the Dream SMP.

Fiction notice:
All banter and fighting seen in streams/videos are purely fictional and should not be taken seriously. It is highly disrespectful to send hate towards anyone so please refrain from doing so at any point.

The Memory Books are unsigned books owned and written by Ranboo. Due to his short-term memory loss, he writes down events, locations, and loyalties in these books to help him remember them.

Due to his flimsy alliances between L'Manberg and Philza, he originally had two books: one named Do not read that held his "actual morals," and another named Memory Book that had fake events that made him seem as if he was still loyal to L'Manberg. The fake book was burned due to Skeppy's sister killing Ranboo with lava on December 26, 2020, but was later rewritten.

Before the Green Festival, "Do not read" #1 was acquired by Dream and replaced with another book of the same name ("Do not read" #2). Tubbo, Quackity, and Technoblade were briefly in possession of "Do not read" #1, with Techno eventually returning it to Ranboo during Doomsday. Despite this, Ranboo continued to use "Do not read" #2 as his main memory book. He used this book until January 20, 2021, when he found yet another "Do not read" book inside his panic room chest ("Do not read" #3), signifying the start of a new era for him. He has been using "Do not read" #3 as his main one since.

In addition to the three "Do not read" books, there is also a fourth memory book that Ranboo's enderwalk state used to write down his conversation with Dream in the prison as well as a series of Lessons. This book is currently in a location unknown to Ranboo. It is important for Ranboo to find, as it has evidence that he has worked with Dream throughout his time on the server, and Ranboo could be locked in the prison if someone else read it.

The books have some connection to Ranboo's mental state. This is shown on the first pages of the second and third "Do not read" books, which occasionally change to reflect actions he has committed, often using Dream's iconic ":)" smile. When these edits first occurred, Ranboo was unable to edit or erase the text; he was only able to erase the page after "freeing" himself from the Dream voice (although the text still reappeared later).

Do not read

	Do not read
Description	1/21	Do not read is one of Ranboo's Memory Books, written to document events that he has witnessed during his time on the SMP, as well as other things that he does not want to forget. The book helped him compensate for his short-term memory loss, and things he had written down included his allegiances, actions, and secrets he knew. The day before the Green Festival, Dream obtained the book, and used it on the day of the Festival to out Ranboo as a traitor. The book was temporarily also in the possession of Tubbo, Quackity, and Technoblade, but was returned to Ranboo during Doomsday.

He is a friend of them so he is a friend of me They are now very close to eachother. I still have no idea what is going on They shot me squid is drowning They kicked me out, i do not know where they are I still do not know where they are, I am sorting my barrels I have given up sorting my barrels Dream is on the wall Everyone is on the wall now The ghost has asked for this book hi ranboo :) The ghost wrote that in the book :))) Dream just hit tommy Tommy is gone Tommy is gone. They are in the van now They went into a tunnel I am alone They have returned from the tunnel They are on the podium [Redacted] Dream still has control We are still in the same situation The walls are still up. Even if dream takes them down. They are still up Ghostbur seems nice Still dont know where tommy is I keep getting shot Talked with tommy today. He is not doing well. I need to figure out how to make him well again Tubbo and dream are speaking! I hope that it is going well for tubbo Ghostbur is nice techno is interesting but in an okay way Tommy says that he never wants me to show my face around there ever again but do it anyway because he is your friend Technos house is located in the certain snow biome to the left of the village as you approach it :) I did see something it was Techno lmao he placed a photo I lost the original memory book today. Meaning this is the only one I can have now. Do NOT LET ANYONE SEE THIS. DO NOT LET ANYONE SEE THIS. I dont really know what my stance is on the relations in Lmanburg. Everyone is trying to pick a side and it isn't working. They let their sides get in the way of the interpersonal relationships which are much more important than a city. We have seen people get torn apart becaus of this. Why does everyone keep choosing sides? Why does Dream keep total control? It shouldnt be techno v lmanburg v dream. It should be all of us working together. But why? Why does one person care so much about power? Why does it matter? Techno and tommy are doing something to connor lmao. it seems funny. Connor is in a hole and that is funny as well They built a wall Philza is with technoblade now. He left and I let him leave. I visited him and Techno and helped them out with some things. Phil seems to be doing better There are dogs in dem walls. Why are there dogs in dem walls? There are dogs in dem walls Techno and tommy seem to be coming into lmanburg more, I have no idea why but i can't say anything about it. Am I being a traitor? No (You kind of were) You cant be a traitor youre doing exactly what you always do. You just have to remember to help people no matter what. Do not press the button I gave techno and tommy and phil some supplies for christmas I dont know what to do I want to help them but i dont want fundy to die but i dont know what to do i dont know i dont know The festival is going to go great! Why do you not remember? No one found it right? RIght No one could have found it no one could have found where it was because you put it in there you put it in that chest i know you did you didnt.

We got a couple. Techno is cool i think he trusts me a little more which is good! I havent heard the voice in a long time! I think i finally got rid of it! However, the blackouts seem to be a little more frequent which is odd. i dont think i do much in them which is alright. Blacked out yet again, keep waking up in odd places. I think it may have something to do with the enderman powers suddenly appearing. I cant remember anything from these periods, but i dont think i do anything bad! Pickaxes randomly become less durable for some reason. Tubbos nuke test went VERY well. PLAN: USE MAP FIND LOCATION OF BOOK DESTROY BOOK HOORAY STOP HAVING PETS DIE THINGS THAT WE HAVE CONFIRMED I have no idea whats going on Ive visited dream while in said enderwalk I am mining... something STOP HAVING PETS DIE Good idea He's dead. TOMMY IS NOT MY FAULT. WHAT HAPPENED TO TOMMY WAS SAM'S FAULT. SAM IS RESPONSIBLE. I think they threatened tubbo. If i join maybe i can help them not attack him. He's alive. But hopefully soon Dream wont be. What am I? I am someone who stops conflict. I need to make sure that if any conflict arises to try and help in any way possible. MAKE SURE THAT EVERYONE IS SAFE. STOP CONFLICT. MAKE THE SERVER BETTER. This is what I need to do. Trust me. Remember about the "new table" Axe feels lighter near it? Weird "eye?" Inside of one of the blocks. Almost seems like mine... but that would be pretty weird huh. Phil talked about "her" the creator of random forests for some reason. Forest appeared outside house. Dont know who Her is. Never heard about Her. Ok so "her" is not actually a name. Got it. Turns out the "universal nicknames" are something completely different TO DO LIST FOR LAS NEVADAS: 1. Figure out what to get inside of. 2. Figure out what the hollow buildings are 3. Figure out why there are so many horses 4. Figure out who runs this place 5. Figure out what the black pillars are for 6. Teach whoever runs this place how to use windows. And NOT the microsoft kind. The actual kind of windows Las Nevadas seems like it has more under the surface. PEOPLE IN LAS NEVADAS: Quackity: Does not respond well to pizza metaphors Goop guy: Might have free will? Not too sure. Foolish: He will tell about things that you dont tell him Fundy: Fundy Purpled: Purple

(Unknown title) Fourth memory book

	Ranboo's fourth memory book
Description	The fourth Memory Book written by Ranboo in his Enderwalk state. Ranboo does not know where the book is or what exactly it contains - only that it apparently contains a record of his conversation with Dream in Pandora's Vault, which Ranboo himself doesn't remember. He plans to find and destroy the book, as it may have evidence for actions that could get Ranboo locked in the prison. On April 23, 2021, Ranboo was able to recall a series of excerpts from the book, all of which being "lessons". The book likely contains even more of these lessons that Ranboo hasn't remembered yet, although he is unsure how many there are in total.
Transcript	Lesson 14 Lesson 27 Lesson 53 Lesson 67 Lesson 94 Lesson 14: If you have the opportunity to gain a favor, take it Lesson 27: Do not reminisce on what you have lost for it will weigh you down Lesson 53: Never fully trust anyone Lesson 67: Leave no evidence of what you have helped with Lesson 94: DO NOT LET THEM KNOW WHAT YOU HAVE DONE
