The cabinet catalogue
The Reliquary
The collection is never quite arranged the same way twice. Six objects have been drawn from the cabinets for your examination.
The Gourd of the Thief's Flame
A vast, twisted gourd carved with grotesque faces, its inner flame holding the soul of Dylan Ryder.
Open the recordThe Pouring Jar of Petronella Bloom
A silver ritual pouring jar whose flowers consume praise, lash out at criticism, and grow more demanding with every compliment.
Open the recordThe Pumpkin Mimic
A flawless jack-o'-lantern that copies itself across nearby pumpkins, grows with admiration, and eats whatever disrupts its idea of perfection.
Open the recordThe Owl at the Threshold
An iron owl door knocker that does not keep intruders out, but reminds the presence inside that it was never invited to leave.
Open the recordThe Last Fragrance
An empty bottle of cut glass and tarnished silver that preserved youth by spending the wearer's remaining years.
Open the recordThe Box of a Thousand Footsteps
A teak reliquary carved with a procession of elephants, taken from an Assam shrine and followed by a spectral herd.
