I See That Strange Tales Are Woven About You

Magical objects aren’t just forged—they’re found. In this solo episode, I explore the secret life of enchanted tools: the knife with a story, the crystal touched by a world-mountain, the wand bought in a witch town that still summons fairy queens.

What gives an object its power? Sometimes it’s planetary timing and whispered invocations—but sometimes it’s stranger tales than that. This is a medium salsa reflection on self-initiation, storycraft, and the agency of objects that choose you.
