Description
Introduction: The kitchen staff of Strong City’s Ad Astra Food and Drink amicably lounge at tables during a power outage. They have all heard of the artesian well nearby but cannot give precise directions to it. Someone suggests that it’s near Wonsevu, a tiny hamlet in southeast Kansas’s Chase County nestled in the heart of the Flint Hills.
