Day 4144
Day 4144 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Bram Tidewater has been released from the Sheriff's office with a stern word and a handshake. Abel Callahan is in Seahaven General after they twisted an ankle chasing a runaway shopping trolley. Bram Tidewater is not currently speaking to Wilf Tanner. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Word of an Inspection runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
