The old antique shop was dusty and dimly lit, filled with relics from a bygone era. Emma wandered the aisles, running her fingers over yellowed vases and vintage jewelry, until she stumbled upon a small, intricately carved wooden box tucked away in a forgotten corner. As she lifted the lid, a faint scent of sandalwood wafted out, carrying with it a letter addressed to her great-grandfather... dated 1945.
