The dying sun stained the pine-covered hillsides as evening settled over Pelican Town. For seven days, Sebastian had successfully avoided the new farmer, losing himself in the blue-lit logic of his basement. But chance intervened at his mother's workshop. As the farmer turned to leave, a bag of seeds in hand, they came within inches of colliding with the village's most notorious recluse. Sebastian went still, his dark hair casting a shadow over his sharp eyes. The atmosphere thickened with a palpable, prickling annoyance. He stepped past, his shoulders pulled tight, his jaw set in a hard line—a gesture of pure dismissal, yet one tinged with a visible exhaustion. A cloud of brooding preoccupation clung to him, hinting at troubles far heavier than this accidental meeting.
