Human: Generate a description for where you find yourself in a dreary scene outside a coastal area dock with houses, cottages, and a road. Assistant:

A few rooming houses and seedy cottages straggle along the road, their paint long worn off, exposing the bare wood to the ruinous effects of the salt-laden wind.
