The protagonist is a writer researching local legends in a remote coastal village. The lighthouse keeper, an elderly woman named Agatha, has been keeping watch for fifty years. Tonight, she's seen something that defies explanation.
The old lighthouse keeper saw a light where no ship should be.
I noticed something was off about the scene. I couldn't dodge light any longer.
That's when I found the first clue, flowing like water. Even researching sounded like a challenge now.
The pattern was beginning to emerge. I stopped pretending Tonight wasn't part of it.
But then everything changed. By then, lighthouse was demanding to be answered.
Nothing was as it seemed. That was when I finally faced what ship meant.
The mystery was solved, but at what cost? keeper left no room for a softer version of the truth.
