The Traveller landed hard on solid ground after a fall he could not remember beginning. I can stand, but I cannot tell whether this place is a city, a punishment, or a passage through one. You step into this one-chapter preview with The Traveller at the center, where choices turn on the people, promises, and pressure already in the room. The lurid cloud lowered over the traffic, and the two figures remained at the edge of the causeway, waiting for a road that had not been shown. The chapter closes on a continuation question rather than resolving the novel's larger arc.
