Day 3494
Day 3494 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Truman Beaumont is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. Linus Tidewater is not currently speaking to Hattie Whitlow. Linus Tidewater is cooling off in the Sheriff's holding cell after the business at The Anchor. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. A Key, and No Lock reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
