Day 4249
Day 4249 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Bram Tidewater has been released from the Sheriff's office with a stern word and a handshake. Fog has come in off the bay and stopped, very precisely, at the edge of town. Jonah Ferris has got good enough at learning the orchard properly to be quietly smug about it. 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.
