New Year's Eve in Conconully — M.M. Justus

This short story is a sequel to Sojourn, the first Tale of the Unearthly Northwest. No good deed goes unpunished. In a place outside of time, the magic keeping a ghost town alive is beginning to alter. Bringing two newcomers in has caused a welcome renewal of life here. But every action has a reaction, and the consequences are far beyond what Conconully's accidental magician ever expected.
