  1. Picture: A collection of assorted tape rolls in a box. A story about change Veeram rasa.

  2. Picture: A postcard with a holographic image of the Hindu Goddess Saraswathi. A story about magic, with a Adbhutam rasa.

  3. Picture: One box of matches. A dark story, with a Bhayānakam rasa.

  4. Picture: The inside cover of a notebook. A story about a family (Kāruṇyam)
