Well most if not all gods have enemy gods. So yes, they probably would want to have as many powerful servants as possible. That and, if they are a level 20 cleric or other divine class perhaps restoring memories is a reward for being such a loyal worshipper.

I worry that "becoming one with all the things you care about" is viewed as a desirable outcome by, well, anybody.
I worry (because my brain is biologically programmed to do so) that people worry about things, given the inevitability of the destruction of all things, and the lack of any free will or ability to alter your ultimately doomed circumstances. Just sit back, relax, and find out what you were always going to do.
Determinism is philosophical and intellectual laziness.

You can't help but feel that way.
