The Locket

The locket has been in my family for generations. One of my however-many-great grandmothers created it when the oceans rose all those years ago, or that’s what my mother told me. She said it was the key to rebuilding life on the surface when the oceans fell back down - if the oceans fell back down. All of us Keepers had strict instructions to not open it until that day comes. I used to think it never would.
