The Dark Lighthouse | Chapter 1 - Unveiling the Tragedy

Created on March 22, 2025.


Hey there, story lovers! If you haven't watched the video yet, check it out above! Imagine this: a storm so fierce it seems to speak in mournful tones, echoing the sorrow of a shattered soul. That's the scene that welcomes us in the first chapter. We find Isla in an abandoned lighthouse, a place where she discovers Finn, a marine biologist, lifeless and entangled in fishing nets he once loved. How do you think she feels stepping into that dark environment knowing Finn's fate awaits?

The wind howled outside as Isla stepped into the lighthouse, its mournful cry matching the unease in her heart. Rain lashed against the weathered stones, a constant reminder of the brewing storm. The musty scent of salt and decay filled the air, making her senses whirl. Her flashlight beam illuminated the faded memories etched in the walls, leading her to Finn’s lifeless body. [Time Skip] Bruises around his neck and blank eyes staring at the ceiling made it clear he wasn’t just resting.

Isla’s resolve hardened as she noted the time of death—two hours ago, just before the storm. The community was oblivious, gathering for the Lantern Festival, unaware of this silent tragedy. [Plot Twist] She knew she had to uncover the truth, no matter the cost. The townsfolk, loyal to Finn, wouldn’t be easy to convince. Her investigation was just beginning.

So, here’s the question, what secrets do you think Isla will uncover as she delves deeper into the mystery?
