Neural Erasure & Stabilization Technologies, or N.E.S.T., is a proprietary suite of neural rewriting protocols designed to suppress, reformat, and overwrite targeted cognitive patterns in sentient beings. The process combines leyline-guided psionic interference, nanoentropic neural scrubbing, and arcano-algorithmic filtration to achieve selective memory erasure without disrupting motor functions, language processing, or core personality traits.
