Day 2250
Day 2250 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. The tide is out further than usual. Hattie Whitlow has gone to look at what it left behind. Bram Tidewater and Hattie Whitlow have quietly become the sort of friends who notice things. Bea Callahan is not currently speaking to Wilf Tanner. 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.
