The Riddle of Washpool Gully
from Terrapin
Far beyond the outskirts of the big city, near a tiny town that nearly everyone forgot, lay a lonely creek bed of no special significance. Once upon a time it was called Washpool Gully.
But the world had moved on from insignificant things, and no one had time for lonely creek beds. Except in Washpool Gully, something was stirring.
