Day 5386
Day 5386 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. A lighthouse postcard has been added to today's mail. Truman Beaumont collects them, and Control knows it. The puddle outside the Sunrise Café has returned to its usual dimensions. Alma Callahan has finally had everyone round. Nobody left early. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Anonymous Good Deed takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.

18:25Silas Tidewater has an answer, of a sort, and has decided it will do.
