Day 1299
Day 1299 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. Word has gone round the kitchens: Truman Beaumont is to be given his favourite, and no bill. Lark Ferris is not currently speaking to Jonah Ferris. Toby Tanner was born to Bev Tanner and Milo Ferris. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
