“Let this be a lesson to you, little plaçage,” said the cabbie. “Take nothing at face value. Remember this. You will be in N’Orleans soon enough. The waters will speak to you, if you pay attention. The trees and the creatures will flatter you with lies. But hidden among those lies are whispers of truth. Listen to the whispers of the bayou, and you might just make it out alive.”
The cabbie removed his hat, revealing two round wounds, one above each eye socket, filled with maggots.
