Explorer Tom Little Cloak would say in an interview that it has 'strong structural integrity.' It’s actually just a wall pretending to be a structure, which is bold for something so small. It wants a job title and a corner office. Make up your own legend and I'll swear it's true.

Explorer Tom Auchenhay Bridge is stuck in a weird loop, convinced it’s a farm but actually just a bridge pretending to be something with a roof.

Explorer Tom Little Richorn is playing hard to get in Dumfries and Galloway, which is ironic considering it's just a medieval motte. Apparently, someone struck a bargain with the devil to build it on time, but they forgot to pay. The whole thing smells like bad decisions and wet earth. Go now, before it gets famous.
