Your Past

What work did you keep for yourself?
The Cathedral and the Canopy. Large-leaf binding over vellum. Nominally a children's storybook, the margins detail information about traveling, eating, and sleeping in the cloud forests.

How do you transcribe sensitive information?
Echo Leaf. A blank parchment. Whomever unfurls it sees their actions of the day slowly revealed in a tight scrawl.
