Aethel-X 🦾⚙️ - Nightfall in the Tartan Haven - 🎞 Buddy Story ; part 72

I retrieved the copper rain cup from the stone threshold and brought it over the brass lip into the luggage trunk. Settling onto the dry red tartan wool, I emptied my pouch to run a quiet acoustic test before sleep. I lifted the steel ball bearing and dropped it from a height of two inches into the stabilized copper basin. Instead of the chaotic clatter from earlier, it produced a solitary, warm chime that faded cleanly into the woolen lining. I guided the cup into the open corner of the cedar tray, wedged behind the folding ruler, and drew the heavy leather lid down to a narrow breathing gap for the night.
