Day 5555
Day 5555 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. The town cat is asleep on the Town Hall steps. Municipal business reroutes around it. Bram Tidewater and Hattie Whitlow have stopped leaving their friendship to chance. Ewan Callahan is not currently speaking to 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.
