Colossal

Dragon's Hoard

It sleeps on gold it cannot spend, guarding treasure it does not need. In the corner, someone is brave enough — or foolish enough — to try.

Colossal

Beneath

Two fishermen cast their lines every morning above the same water. They have never looked down. They will never know what passes beneath them.

Colossal

Kraken

The lighthouse keeper thought the worst thing about his job was the loneliness. He was wrong.

Colossal

Mushroom Valley

They call it a valley. It is not a valley. It is a garden that belongs to something older than valleys.

Colossal

The Hive

Sixty thousand lives. One purpose. No argument. No politics. No hesitation. Humans could never.

Colossal

The Frozen

The expedition found it in the ice. Perfectly preserved. Perfectly still. They started drilling. They should not have started drilling.

Colossal

Backbone

The creature died ten thousand years ago. Its ribs became market stalls. Its skull became a temple. Even in death, it provides.

$3,200Acquire →
Colossal

The Colossus

Nobody remembers who the statue depicted. They just know the mouth makes a good marketplace and the ear makes a fine chapel.

Colossal

The Web

Mathematics existed before mathematicians. The spider knows this. Every strand is calculated. Every angle is deliberate.

$2,400Acquire →
Colossal

The Colony

A boot. That is all it takes. One step and a civilization built over decades is gone. The boot does not know. The boot never knows.

Reclaimed

Lullaby

It was built to destroy. Programmed to fight. But when the wars ended and the armies left, it found a child in the rubble. Now it guards the only thing that matters.

Reclaimed

The Library

Ten thousand books. Ten thousand worlds. The shelves fell, the ceiling caved, the rain came in. But one person is still reading. The building gave up. The reader did not.

Reclaimed

The Piano

The last note was played in 1987. The keys have not been touched since. But something is growing between C and D. The piano has found a new song.

Reclaimed

Platform 7

The last train left forty years ago. The platform is still waiting. But its passengers are wildflowers now, and they never need a ticket.

$2,800Acquire →
Reclaimed

Overgrown

1967 model. The last owner left the keys in the ignition and never came back. The engine is now an oak tree. The backseat is a nest. The car finally found its purpose.

Reclaimed

The Clock Tower

It fell on a Tuesday. Nobody remembers which Tuesday. The clock face cracked at 3:47 and has read 3:47 ever since. Inside, a fox raises her cubs. She cannot read clocks. She does not need to.

Reclaimed

Flooded

The dining room was set for a party that never happened. Then the river came. Now the guests are koi fish, and the centerpiece is a lily pad. It is a better party.

Reclaimed

The Boat

It carried fishermen for thirty years. Now it carries tadpoles. The boat does not mind. Water is water. Purpose is purpose.

Reclaimed

The Playground

The children grew up. The swings did not. They still hang there, waiting, rusting, slowly becoming part of the garden they were built on top of.

Reclaimed

The Gramophone

Music stopped the day the needle broke. But listen carefully — rain collects in the horn, a frog sings from inside, moss follows the spiral grooves. The forest wrote its own album.

$2,800Acquire →
Ember

First Light

The forest burned for seven days. Everything is ash now. Everything except this — one sprout, one ember, one conversation between death and life.

$2,800Acquire →
Ember

The Wolf

No pack. No trail. Just paw prints in the snow and the knowledge that forward is the only direction that matters.

$2,600Acquire →
Ember

Dragon Eggs

Three eggs. One intact. One cracking. One broken open with tiny footprints leading away into the dark. Whatever hatched is already gone. It did not wait.

$3,200Acquire →
Ember

The Samurai

The battle is over. The field is empty. One warrior remains, kneeling in the rain with his blade planted in the earth. Cherry blossoms fall on wet ground. He is not mourning. He is grateful.

$3,000Acquire →
Ember

The Diver

No surface. No floor. Just blue in every direction and one small human choosing to float in it. The loneliest place on earth, and somehow the most peaceful.

$2,800Acquire →
Ember

The Farewell

The ship disappears into the fog. On the dock, one hand is raised. It stays raised long after there is nothing left to wave at.

$2,600Acquire →
Ember

Last Tree

Everything around it has died. The soil cracked, the rivers dried, the fields turned to dust. But a child still walks here every morning with a small bucket of water. The tree is still green.

$3,000Acquire →
Ember

The Letter

The coffee cup fell. The coffee is spreading. In half a second it will reach the letter and the words will blur and disappear. But right now, in this frozen half-second, every word is still legible.

$2,400Acquire →
Ember

The Violinist

The concert hall is in ruins. The roof is gone. The seats are empty and covered in dust. But on the stage, one figure stands and plays. The audience is no one. The music is everything.

$3,000Acquire →
Ember

The Signal

Every building around it has collapsed. The wires hang loose. The paint is gone. But at the top of the rusted tower, one signal still blinks. Someone, somewhere, might be listening.

Mythology

The Offering

For three thousand years, people have climbed this cliff and left their most precious thing on this stone. A bronze dagger. A gold ring. A child's drawing. A modern wristwatch. Nobody knows who they are offering to. Nobody has stopped coming.

$2,800Acquire →
Mythology

The Labyrinth

The hero came to kill the beast. But the beast is sleeping. It has been sleeping for centuries. The sword feels heavy. The monster looks tired. Maybe the labyrinth was not a prison. Maybe it was a home.

$3,200Acquire →
Mythology

The Hydra

The necks rise from the swamp in every direction. You cannot see where they end. You cannot count them. At the edge, a warrior holds a torch and a blade and tries to count anyway.

$3,000Acquire →
Mythology

The Oracle

The temple is in ruins. The columns have cracked. The offerings are centuries old. But someone still sits on the stone throne. And someone still comes with questions.

Mythology

Dragon's Rest

The shepherd grazes his flock on this hill every morning. Good grass, he says. Quiet place. He has never noticed that the hill breathes.

$3,200Acquire →
Mythology

The Kraken's Wake

The storm is over. The sea is calm. Broken planks float on the surface. Somewhere below, something enormous is sinking back into the dark. It is not hungry anymore.

$2,600Acquire →
Mythology

The Colosseum

He won. The last fight is over. He stands in the center of the arena with his sword lowered. The crowd roared for him once. The seats are empty now. He won everything and there is nobody left to tell.

$3,000Acquire →
Mythology

The Phoenix

It burned completely. Nothing remained but white ash and silence. Then the ash moved. Something small and warm pushed through. Not the same bird. A new one. Again.

$2,800Acquire →
Mythology

The Ferryman

The river has no name. The far shore has no shape. The ferryman asks for one coin and no questions. The boat only goes one direction.

$2,600Acquire →
Mythology

The Sphinx

The desert buried everything except the face. A traveler found shelter between its fingers without knowing what they slept beside. In the morning the sand had shifted. One eye was open.

Machine

Lullaby II

It was built to destroy. Programmed for war. But the wars ended and the armies left. It found a fawn in the rubble, shaking and alone. Now the destroyer guards the smallest life it can find.

Machine

The Painter

The city is grey. Every wall, every street, every window. But one small robot found paint. And one wall. And then another wall. Nobody asked it to. Nobody will see it. But the city has flowers now.

Machine

The Postman

The houses are empty. The doors are gone. The mailboxes lean and rust. But every morning the route begins again. The bag is full. The letters are old. But the postman does not read. It only delivers.

Machine

The Fisherman

It watched the old fisherman for years from the factory window. The cast, the wait, the pull. When the factory closed, it walked to the dock and sat down. The bait is a small gear. The bucket is always empty. But every morning it tries.

$2,800Acquire →
Machine

The Orchestra

Five machines on a broken stage playing to an empty hall. The roof is gone. The seats are dust. But the cello still resonates, the trumpet still calls, the piano still sings. The audience is leaves blown in by the wind. They do not applaud. The music does not stop.

$3,200Acquire →
Machine

The Jukebox

The diner is dead. Grease on the counters, dust on the pie case, cobwebs in the coffee machine. But in the corner, the jukebox gleams. Someone — or something — polishes it every night. It is ready. It has always been ready. It just needs one more quarter.

$2,400Acquire →
Machine

The Companion

The old man sits on the left. The robot sits on the right. Between them, a bag of breadcrumbs. The pigeons eat from both hands equally. They have been doing this for years. Neither has ever spoken. Neither has needed to.

$2,800Acquire →
Machine

The Nomad

It found a shell. It strapped the shell to its back. Now it walks. Slowly, endlessly, with everything it owns on its back. The path forks ahead. It does not know which way. It does not mind.

$2,600Acquire →
Machine

The Farmer

The city is concrete and dust. Nothing grows here. Nothing should grow here. But one machine cracked the asphalt and found soil underneath. Now there are tomatoes. Now there are sunflowers. The city is still dead. But the parking lot is alive.

$3,000Acquire →
Machine

The Waiting Room

The schedule is faded. The road is empty in both directions. A bird nests on the bus stop sign. The robot sits with a packed suitcase and waits. The bus will not come. But the suitcase is ready. Just in case.

$2,400Acquire →
Lost

The Volcano

The volcano should have destroyed everything. But inside the crater, carved into the inner walls, is an amphitheater. Stone seats descending in perfect circles. A waterfall where the stage should be. Someone built a theater inside a volcano. The volcano kept it.

$3,000Acquire →
Lost

The Compass

Carved into the mountain floor. Thirty meters wide. A compass rose with cardinal directions in a language no one reads. The center stone points toward a narrow canyon that leads into darkness. The expedition stands at the edge. The compass says go. The darkness says think.

$2,800Acquire →
Lost

The Gate

Two pillars and a lintel. No walls, no building, just a gate standing alone in the desert. The sand on one side is gold. The sand on the other side is white. The gate connects nothing to nothing. But the sand is different. Something changes when you walk through.

$3,200Acquire →
Lost

The Glacier

The ice preserved everything. Domed roofs. Towers. Streets. An entire city frozen in time, visible through the blue ice like looking through thick glass. The research team camps on the surface and stares down. They can see it but they cannot reach it. Maybe the ice is not trapping the city. Maybe it is protecting it.

$3,000Acquire →
Lost

The Cenote

From above it is just a beautiful pool. Turquoise water, hanging vines, tropical birds. But dive beneath the surface and the water opens into a temple. Carved columns. A broken altar. Gold scattered on the stone floor. The jungle hid it above. The water hid it below.

$2,800Acquire →
Lost

The Roots

The face has been here longer than the tree. But the tree does not care about history. Its roots grip the forehead, wrap the chin, cover one eye. An archaeologist with a small brush tries to free the cheek. The jungle is eating a god. One person is trying to save it.

$2,600Acquire →
Lost

The Map Room

Every wall is a map. Every map shows a place that does not exist. The coastlines are wrong. The mountains are in the wrong place. The continents do not match. Either the mapmaker was mad, or the world has changed more than we think.

$2,800Acquire →
Lost

The Clock

A clock face thirty meters wide, carved into the jungle floor. The numerals are in a writing system that predates all known language. The stone hands stopped at a specific time. What happened at that moment? Who needed a clock this large? And why did it stop?

$3,200Acquire →
Lost

The Bell

It hangs from an ancient branch in the darkest part of the forest. Bronze, enormous, covered in green patina and thick moss. The rope rotted away centuries ago. The bell has not rung since. But when the wind comes through the valley, the forest holds its breath.

$2,600Acquire →
Lost

The Mirror

A pool of mercury in a cave floor. Perfectly circular. Perfectly still. It reflects the ceiling — but in the reflection, instead of rock, there are stars. A night sky that does not exist. An archaeologist crouches at the edge and sees constellations that no astronomer has ever mapped.
