Day 5108
Day 5108 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Bram Tidewater has been released from the Sheriff's office with a stern word and a handshake. Fern Gorse is not currently speaking to Mabel Tidewater. Fern Gorse 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. The Sea Glass Season takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
