Explorer Tom Halferne does something weird when nobody's looking. It rearranges its own pebbles just to annoy anyone who tries to count them later. It's free, it's odd, what more do you want? Just don't ask it for a receipt; it never keeps one anyway, apparently.
Explorer Tom Old Bridge of Urr is a spindle whorl that has been waiting for a prophecy about it to come true, but it’s just spinning its wheels in the meantime.

Explorer Tom Meikle Ernambrie would teach history by just sitting there and letting the silence do all the talking for you. It’s a farmstead that has seen better days but refuses to admit it looks tired. The whole place has a vibe of 'I’ve been here longer than your excuses.'

It’s got that serious, brooding vibe down to a science. Bring a coin for luck and keep it in your pocket.
