A while back, I posted a starting scene and challenged the community: Take
that scene, and write an adventure for _Freelance Traveller_. The adventure
that came out of it was "Jabru", September/October 2016
http://www.freelancetraveller.com/features/advents/jabru.html

I'm going to try it again.

You recognized the name on the package; it was someone who you encountered
under ... interesting ... circumstances some years ago. Not hostile;
there's no reason to be concerned about the contents of the package.

So, you open it.

Inside, you find two things: a card, and an exquisitely-carved and
-finished wooden box. It's not jewelwood, but it's almost as beautiful.

The card - a calling card - is intimately familiar to you; it's one of your
own, though not in the name to which the package was addressed. You wonder
how the sender got hold of it, and start to put it down. It slips out of
your fingers and lands face down, revealing a date and a glyph on the back,
both equally familiar to you, and you remember the occasion that led to you
drawing that glyph and handing the card to someone. You begin to suspect
that you know what you'll find in the box, so you raise the lid. Sure
enough, that's what's in there, along with a note.

What's in the box? What does the note say? How did the sender get the card?
And above all, what does it all mean?
