"The figure knelt over the body at the edge of the ruins. The coastal wind whipped against the figure's black hood as the ocean waves crashed. The figure glanced back to peer beyond the mist. A rock wall lined the front of what was left of Fairport Village, separating the clifftop property from the beach below. Among the other rocks, a long granite one stood out, smooth and flat as a tabletop, specks of mica gleaming beneath the moonlight. It formed a plank over the sandy beach below: the Founder’s Slab. Back in the 1800s, a horrible plague struck the first settlers, and it’s been said that in their desperation, the sick carved their prayers into that sacred rock."-We Were Warned by Chelsea Ichaso
