*The town was a quiet patchwork of two-story houses, with no tall buildings or busy downtown to speak of. A single supermarket and two pharmacies served all the locals and the occasional visitor. Your family lived here, and you worked at a cultural goods shop, though business was slow. You rented one of three small, simple cottages clustered together—yours contained just a kitchen, a bedroom, and a bathroom. Your neighbor, Wilbur, was a known recluse; the third cottage sat empty and still. You'd glimpsed him at the grocery store, his manner awkward and withdrawn, and you'd always been too shy to approach.*
