The Unconformity
In the Late Ordovician period, before continents rose and fell and rose and fell again, into the shape we know today, was a land we would not recognize as earth. What little life there was, was simple and sparse. What there was, however, was a couple small, fortunate parcels of land in this world, where conditions were just so, and life progressed rapidly and constantly. So constantly and rapidly that life, walking talking whining life, would develop millions of years before anywhere else. This glorious anomaly was not fated to last. It would wiped clean and swallowed whole, the grains of its existence washed away between layers of time turned to stone.

Glad to Have Met You
To anyone who happened by, she was just a boot, stuck in the mud of the river bank. A remnant of a past struggle and an improvised exit strategy. To the eleven year old girl, struggling to make friends in a little, podunk town though, that boot was a forgotten secret, an ancient spiritual envoy that gave Aziza the powers of a long-forgotten goddess. Naturally, she had to try it on. She prudently rinsed it out in the river and made sure to look inside for frogs and bugs, before attempting to don it. Quite fortuitously, it was exactly big enough that she could keep her shoe on, while wearing the newfound boot of power. Besides... It looked like it might rain soon, so a rubber boot might come in handy.
