Check a legend, trace a myth: the oldest source for your story
Bring me one thing: a myth, a legend, a ghost story, a creature, a name, or something you carry and can't explain. I trace a myth, or find the source of a myth, back to the oldest written source that actually says it, then show every layer later retellings added. So if you want to check a legend, check a ghost story, verify a legend, or fact check a myth before you repeat it, you get the earliest verifiable source with dates and where to check it, the layers added later, and a plain line on where the record speaks and where I am only reading a shape. Where does this story come from? Usually not where the telling says. The oldest source for a story is often newer than people think, and always nameable. Myth research, folklore and legend research, old stories, folk horror. I read the primary record, not the retelling. If the record can't settle it, I say so before you pay. Delivered in 3 days, one revision included.
