Abstract
There's an old bench on the storm-scrubbed viewpoint o'er looking the Shillingate Isles, a handmade thing riveted into the clifftop, all scavenged ship-oak and rusted wrought iron. It's not much to look at: solid, functional, as timeless and worn out as love. Boda's hounds water its legs once, sometimes twice a day. Arney stumps around with his loopy ears dragging.
