He was an old collector... a bold collector.
Trinkets and souvenirs of times long gone; there was hardly a thing that he'd ever forgone.
Memories, experiences, things that once mattered-- it's inevitable, that one day those things may be shattered.

I feel as if this image fits this fic more than anything I could ever think to say

So, I found this by accident. For some reason, it’s easily one of my favorite stories. I love stories like this, and the idea to mask the old collection’s twist by writing it in past tense, which is normal for a book, was brilliant. I feel like this is a story that’d get better through subsequent rereadings, and that ending was sad in a beautiful way. It may be a random story, but I love it.
Congratulations, your story reached my favorites.
Reviewed, backup on my blog here.
I like it, it's fitting so to say, it is something that has that bit of poetic that really makes you see what an immortal life could lead to, either to be forever trapped in the past long gone or become as shining as a star, in my opinion you made an excellent work into portraing the first of the two outcomes. Good job.
This feels like it could be a great story if it was beefed up a bit more! As it is the descriptions are a little too short to be engaging
