Huh....this is too short to really tell if it's any good; and you did shift verb tenses once, I think. However, it is interesting and I really do want to know what you are talking about. Please write more and post it! I especially liked the oil lamp and wooden rocket, because the two don't seem like they belong in the same time era. Write some more!
Please check out my work - I don't know if anyone has seen it.
