Challenge #04573-L189: Literate Legacy

Opening a box belonging to a great-great-grandparent, they smiled warmly. This was truly a treasure. An heirloom beyond any they could have desired as an inheritance. Their grandparent had always been an avid writer since they were young. And what was in the box? Diaries.

GrampGramp had been one hundred and fourteen when he passed. The old man had joked that Death wouldn't take him while he could tell the Grim Reaper a story. Death must have been patient about the lack, since GrampGramp had lasted three more years beyond his ability to keep one story in mind.

"I have a box for you," GrampGramp repeated towards the end. "It's under the bed." And of course Lil had to find it and show it to him so his shattered mind was at ease.

Now that he was beyond worrying about anything, Lil was reluctant to open it.

An adorable set of small puppies went after King Kormwind's tail, Wraithvine's clothes, Gikka's tail, and were trying to chase and play with Birbrid and Lilbit. The caretaker apologized as they were trying to care for, and find homes for, this sweet pack of little strays. -- Anon Guest

The cart was pretty big, and the instant that Dulienna Pestlegrind started unfolding it, anyone could see why. Most of it was cupboards and containers and a multitude of folders that, in turn, contained small amounts of very potent ingredients.

Because of this, I am having Queen and Freddie Mercury-related feels, and have
