Player: Trap
Character: Miles/Hope
Reason for Echo: Waiting for a train in the business district's subway station with his mother when the earthquake hit plus the chaotic aftermath. Basically the earthquake hits, a train gets derailed, and he and Mama Asher and a whole lot of other people are trying to get away from it out onto the street.
Type and tier: Tier 2, 2 related memories
What is returned:
Memories of the Purge, specifically Hope and Mama Estheim crawling out of a derailed train in awkward clothing with other panicked, screaming people wearing the same + the memory of watching his mother falling to her doom off a platform parallel to his. 1:57 to 2:14 in the video.

Note: He wont see the warzone-like atmosphere in the Hanging Edge, the soldiers or who's been holding Nora up before she fell. Just that it's chaos and there are derailed trains and debris everywhere like something shook up the whole place.

The worst thing to happen to Miles with his mom is this earthquake because it was so damn bad. The worst thing to happen to Hope with his mom is the Purge. Which involves trains and trains getting derailed. And Hope's mom dying. That's the most important bit: Hope associates the Purge with his mother's death, and Miles would definitely think the same of the earthquake, considering he's a gigantic mama's boy.
