Marram, on the Firth · April 1889

Ebbtide

The sea went out on the ninth of April, and it did not come back.

Everyone with sense took the cliff road. You are the ones who walked down onto the sand.

Headphones if you have them.

The Long Ebb

The sea keeps going out

No Return. Every ninth of April the sand grows and the surges grow with it, until the last soul takes the road or the water. Scored on souls-years. Best so far: —

Today's Tide

Today

The same sand for everyone, changing at midnight UTC. Ten years, then the book closes: scored on souls standing and stores kept. One go counts.
