Trying to drum up discussion as others have mentioned. Full spoilers.

Which of the 16 Shards of Adonalsium would you pick, had you been present at the shattering? Or be able to Connect to well enough to pick up? Would you try to modify its intent in any way, a la Harmony/Discord?

For a meme pick, I will go with whimsy, we don't know what it is doing, it hasn't even settled on a planet yet. But you can beat is going to be unexpected.

Ironically, I feel like picking Whimsy for the meme is perfectly in line with Whimsy and therefore a valid reason. That would be a pretty hard Shard to pass along with purpose like Preservation or Honor tried.
