The Distant Lighthouse

Create a story about a lighthouse keeper, who, during a fierce storm, spots a ship on a collision course with nearby rocky cliffs.

Dealing with intense solitude and the constant strife against nature makes for a nautical fiction prime with possibilities. Explore how the lighthouse keeper deals with this impending catastrophe. Do they try everything in their power to alert them? Or do they succumb to a sense of hopelessness? It’s a chance to delve into the themes of duty, isolation, and the human will to save others in the face of adversity.
