Feral Fork

"What is this place?"

"People come here to find unusual foods, amazing tales, and a man called D."

"D?"

"Some say doesn't exist. Some say he's the ghost of an old elk camp cook who was killed trying to defend his stash of jerky from a grizzly."

"What do you think, Pa? You think he's real?"

"I'll tell you a secret. I saw him once. It was a hazy night and the picture isn't real clear in my head, but his floppy hair drooped over one eye, his beard looked like it was built by a dove, and his words sounded like music."

"What did he say?"

"Go ahead and poke around a bit. His words are here. You just have to listen."
