Spoiler : I do not understand how I restored Cavas' memory

SpoilerQuestion

I was doing a T9 map, I decided to do the memory fragment thing ( since Intervention didn't spawn and I only got Transport and Research ) which I hadn't touched for the last few days, suddenly I am in this room and the next thing I see is Zana talking about Cavas' past and then he realizes that his memory is back. It was very confusing, how did he even get his memory back ? there was no progression, only one dialogue where he talks about being a Templar, all I did was run through random memories killing monsters, no boss fights that could be linked to his memory being restored. Just completely random. The whole point of this expansion was to restore his memory, it simply doesn't make sense to me how it happened.

In my opinion it was quite underwhelming or a major bug, and even if it was a major bug, in general its just quite underwhelming, I thought the only way to restore his memory would be by interacting with the Memory Map.

Also my memory map thing has only got 10 ten tiles or so connected and I have completed only 4 or 5 treasure encounters which are listed in the challenge.

did you pay attention to the event? you run random memories, these are not cava's but random people's from wraeclast. at one point you get to a memory where cavas is in (he doesn't know) he see's the high templar avarius threatening the shaper (back then) who is forced to open the atlas blah blah, elder spawns blah blah. He say's theres a misunderstanding, that the high templar is a good person, then zana intervenes and tells him (implying she was investigating these memories and the guy on her own) that he is actually the high templar, and he caused all this havoc by forcing shaper to open the atlas. he realises what he has done, but at the same time doesn't want to cooperate since to his eyes the only solution is to unify wraeclast under his command to fight the elder, and goes eveil knevil and the rest is history. but if you were looking for a long storyline going across different memories, its not there, it mostly all happens on this specific one you find.

He got his memory back because you finally found a memory that actually belonged to him, that being his confrontation of Zana's father.

Then it all basically came back to him, and he remembered what he was doing and perhaps why, and thus decided to force everyone to unite under him in order to fight the unseen threat of demons.

That's all there was to it - there isn't a progression system where you slowly piece things back together for him. It's just your first map memory after having unlocked Elder influence.

He get's his memories back once you get your first memory fragment from the zana questline (which gives you your t1 shaper orb). Zana then decides to try cavas' memory magic on the fragment, which triggers cavas getting his memory back. It even establishes a link between cavas, the shaper and the elder. All of this is either in the memory cutscene or in zana's dialog afterwards.

The lost memory dialogue option gets replaced with new lines every now and then.

You were in that particular memory, you heard all the dialogues and still don't understand?

Huh, let's be honest, you didn't really listen did you?
