She retained a memory of what really happened because she was gifted beyond the ordinary to hold onto the record of events and because she was the axis upon which the whole prophecy turned. In my opinion, of course.

That's why Kelly would verify that it all happened just as it was told and it wasn't a fairytale because 'his father told him so!'... they really had seemed to like that last part. Basically, there is no explanation (unless I missed an interview where they gave one) for how this ultimate battle with Zestorer happened and the 'hard reset' (their own words) where time got altered, etc. except that it did happen.
Now, that answers my question in another post about getting the real meaning of Kelly's recollection that he adds to the record in the Grimm journal. I've been nibbling around the edges of those few and simple words explaining the true story in Nick's words, trying to get at the big answer. He was including the entire story, pre-time and post-time. The whole saga wasn't a legend, myth or fairy tale, so sayeth Nick. We only need appeal to Kelly's testimony, vital enough to be laid down in the Book of Grimm, to find the truth. Thanks for clarifying that for me.
