Day 5880 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. The tide is out further than usual. someone has gone to look at what it left behind. Cole Whitlow and Nell Tidewater no longer need a reason to call round. Lark Ferris and Abel Callahan have stopped leaving their friendship to chance. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Bench at The Orchard Gate takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
