mystified - Story 91659 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The text arrived just as he was about to switch off the lights. "Meet at the lighthouse at midnight. Don't be late." There was no name, just the cryptic words. He was completely confounded. He knew no one who frequented lighthouses, especially not at midnight.

He sat on the edge of his bed, frozen. The darkness of the room seemed to press in on him. He felt a chill, despite the warm night air. He rubbed his arms, trying to dispel the feeling of unease. His mind raced, seeking any explanation, any clue. He couldn't shake the sensation that something was profoundly off.
