DAY 946, DAWN
The wind picks up outside, rattling the cottage shutters as Kevin and Jenny prepare the gear for the spring trip. They wait for the first grey of light to hit the north ridge.
The humidity is heavy and oppressive, as the flat sky thickens with the promise of rain. Inside the cottage, the air is still and warm, while Jenny's ankle throbs despite the cooling of the sea-beet-mint poultice. The tide is rising steadily, lapping at the lower dockings.

Stay here. I'll mark the spot and send you coordinates. If the soil's still shallow, we'll plant the seeds in the cairn cairn site instead.
Take the spade and pH kit, turn toward the door, then pause. "Kevin, wait." Walk back to the seed tin on the table. Open it carefully. "These are grandmother's.

I'll keep them dry.
