Due to the limited reproductive abilty of the Abrathian race, they have evolved to pass down all knowlege and memories of passed family members down through their genetics. Meaning that each new born Abrathi already has the knowlege of their ancestors.
Unfortunately due to the limited capability for memory retention, an Abrathi may only retain core memories of more distant relatives. For example, While a young Abrathi may access their parents memories of a nice sun set or a good meal, they may only access memories of big achievements or accomplishments from their great great great great grandfather. (This also applies to Languages. Due to their complexity, an Abrathi may only retain 2 additional languages from an ancestors memories.
