Liam stood on the windswept moor, the gusts of wind whipping at his face. He held a small, leather-bound book, a collection of his father’s poetry. His sister, Freya, had inherited their family’s historic lighthouse. A wave of regret and disappointment washed over him.

Freya, standing beside him, pointed towards the horizon, her voice filled with excitement about the possibilities for the lighthouse. Liam felt a hollowness in his chest.

He opened the book, the ink on the pages faded. He read a poem about resilience, about finding strength in the face of adversity. He closed the book and looked out at the vastness of the ocean. He took a deep breath, and he felt the wind on his face again.
