Lockets
The Island of Lost Things The small island was shrouded in mystery. It was said that the island had a way of reclaiming lost things, and people would travel from far and wide to find what they had misplaced. Lena had always been skeptical, but after losing her grandmother's locket, she felt desperate enough to try anything.

Raging Against the Machine
This caper has been rotating around our circle since the late 2000s. Now, with almost two decades elapsed, it's probably safe to disgorge in public. On the surface this story could simply be, Rage Against the Machine reformed, we saw them, and it was epic. However, just as most music is a homage to previous generations, this was the moment we stood on the shoulders of preceding Metalheads. Not only was the baton passed down, but we also grabbed it firmly by the wrist and charged towards the dance floor.
