The hippocampus (which stores memories) of the El-Aurian brain is extremely dense having about 10x the normal neural pathways allowing for greater storage of memory. Furthermore, it is linked to both sides of the brain with even stronger connections to their auditory senses. The extensive networking of neurons in the hippocampus are not present at birth but develop at puberty and continue to grow until the end of puberty. | The hippocampus (which stores memories) of the El-Aurian brain is extremely dense having about 10x the normal neural pathways allowing for greater storage of memory.

El-Aurians are prone to eidetic memories ( about 60%) of their race. 58% of these eidetic memories do not develop until the onset of puberty. The way that humans can use scent to trigger memories, El-Aurians have a stronger trigger to recover memories with auditory stimulus. When they remember things they have a fuller and more robust mental image. On an unconscious level they can use these memories to relive life experiencing and derive ‘life lessons’ from them. This coupled with their longevity is the source of their species renown wisdom. It would also explain why they collect ‘stories’ from other species and value such lore. This ability is linked to their species ability to ‘listen’ | El-Aurians are prone to eidetic memories ( about 60%) of their race. 58% of these eidetic memories do not develop until the onset of puberty.
