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 Alchemist's Cabinet
A tall cabinet of nearly black wood whose shifting labels offer every needed ingredient while quietly collecting payment from the alchemist who uses them.
Open the recordThe Bell of the Thirteenth Chime
The forbidden final bell from Giovanni Donato's sixteenth-century clock, built to claim any spirit still lingering after midnight's twelve chimes.
Open the recordThe Cage of Schrödinger's Bird
A silver cage suspended between life and death, now occupied by Malcolm in the half-living, half-dead form of a bird.
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.

A remarkably talkative grinning skull who appointed himself to the Caravan's entrance and became its permanent greeter, rule-keeper, and unlikely guardian against what waits beyond the lanterns.
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.
