Lakesong

Melody, the darling of Jackson's small lakeside town, isn't all they seem. Frequent customer to the small grocery that he works at, he never thought to question just /why/ they always buy four canisters of salt twice weekly. But after he encounters them on the beach one supposedly moonless night, he finds that it's all he can think about.   Do you know why whales sing?  Do you know why humans talk?
