Prompt

A small, intricately carved wooden stool, slightly worn but sturdy. A handful of smooth, reddish-brown earth, the very soil of their home.

A few dried okra pods, a staple food, showing the reliance on the land. A small, tarnished copper pendant, perhaps a treasured possession or a sign of the story's title. Redraw
