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 Soul-Stealing Mirror
An ornate, golden-framed looking glass that shows each viewer everything they most wish to see, then imprisons the soul that chooses its promised reflection over reality.
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 Dream Box
An ornate wooden box, no larger than a book, whose carvings of moons, stars, and sleeping faces promise each visitor the perfect life they most desire.
Open the recordThe Veilcatchers of the Midnight Weavers
Harvest-moon webs of midnight silk, dark cloth, night-bird feathers, and memory beads woven to protect sleepers from harmful dreams and wandering spirits.
Open the recordThe Watcher at the Edge
A burlap-headed scarecrow whose changing gaze warns whether danger approaches from the field, the forest, the farmhouse—or the observer.
Open the recordThe Silver Requiem Vessel
A baroque apothecary bubble jar framed in silver and sealed around black water drawn from the River Styx.
