luggage
Luggage is the legion of objects that burdens both body and soul whenever one crosses the threshold between home and the wild. It specializes in perpetual underreporting, magically multiplying under the guise of packing. It swallows small items with reckless abandon, revealing its true talent for misplacing the most essential belongings. At customs it stands judged, and upon return only a ritual of unpacking can resurrect its secrets.
