He crosses the wide beach furtively. Foggy  days like this are a gift - he can forage during daylight rather than at  night - but he still needs to take care. He doesn’t want to be seen.
He stretches his hearing to the limit, but fog muffles sound as well  as vision. Finding food will mean taking chances, but then, it always  does.
It’s been decades since the waters of Cheviot made him their own, but  the price of discovery remains the same: he can live forever beneath  the waves, emerging only when he will not be seen; or he can be Harold  Holt.
