Day 3732 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. The tide is out further than usual. someone has gone to look at what it left behind.

Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. A Surprise for Truman Beaumont runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
