Whispers of the Forgotten
In the heart of a decaying town, nestled between overgrown trees and forgotten cobblestone paths, stood the abandoned library known as the "Ephemera Enclave." Its once-grand façade was now weathered and worn, a testament to the relentless march of time. The town regarded it as a relic of a bygone era, where the shelves held books that hadn't felt the caress of a reader's fingers for decades. The air was imbued with an aura of mystery and melancholy, carrying the weight of forgotten stories.

The foreigner walks up the cobblestone street with three sherpas and delights in the attention, handing out candies to the youngsters. I observe him as he gazes into every shop window, and to every street vendor he smiles and gives a nod.
