Inside the lighthouse, the old Fresnel lens sputtered to life, casting a powerful beam that cut through the darkness. As the light spun, we stood in a circle, each of us illuminated in turn—Laney’s notebook glowing with potential, Grey’s coat rippling like a storm‑tossed flag, Natalia’s camera flashing with each click.
