Day 5123
Day 5123 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. Control has sent an old friend to sit with Truman Beaumont for a while. Nothing calms him faster. Linus Tidewater and Bea Callahan have quietly become the sort of friends who notice things. Nell Tidewater was born to Mabel Tidewater and Dell Tanner. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
