Beneath a vast night sky, a solitary lighthouse stands in silence. Its steady beam cuts through the darkness, while countless stars shimmer overhead. Even within the deep shadows reflected across the sky, a quiet light endures without cease—mirroring the lighthouse below. That gentle radiance exists among the stars themselves, as if each one were a distant beacon answering the light on earth.
