Those who ride the train come and go regularly. Mayhaps, occasionally, this ride does not end of their own free will. 


When travelling and exploring the train, what token do you find, eerily mirroring your own journey and carried by a long-vanished predecessor? Do you find comfort in its worn or sharpened edges? What was its original purpose, and how has it been made less by the presence of the Shadow? 


This prompt is worth 4 points, +1 if this item is actively traumatic to bear, but enough to start a journey of self reflection. 

Sufficiently detailed items acquired during Echosteps will be able to be used during the next nightfall in 2 days, regardless of whether the incentive is ongoing.
