From the ledger of the Gleaners

№ 000 · The Red Coat Button

Painterly forest clearing at creature scale: an enormous weathered red coat button resting in deep moss at the left, its old thread trailing toward the viewer, a faint bare trail curving away through leaf litter into rain-mist.

The ledger's opening

Recovered: one coat button, red, four holes, thread intact. Found at the edge of human notice. Condition: becoming legend.

What you lose is not gone. It is gleaned.
