[Reality-Based] [Antique Appraisal] [Mystery] [First-Person POV]
I'm a new writer, and I hope you'll support my work and offer any advice you can. Please stick with the first few chapters. I promise the rest will give you a pleasant surprise.
Through these experiences of my own, I'll show you that our trade isn't just about getting rich overnight. It's also about the last hopes of ordinary people.
We're not collectors. We don't have that kind of luck. We're ferrymen, carrying old objects from the hands of one desperate person to the next person who truly cherishes them. What we earn along the way is enough to eat, a little money for our discerning eye, and a bad reputation.
In this line of work, legends loom above us, while making a living weighs us down. We're the ones bent over, picking up stories in the narrow space between legend and livelihood.
