As you approach, you feel the wind start to pick up and see a line of clouds approaching from the west. It looks like they are moving fast enough that they will hit sometime tonight, and it will not be a good idea to be outside when they do.As night starts to fall, you near the lighthouse and beach in front of it. The lighthouse itself sits on a peninsula that juts out from a dry section of forest, which provides the fuel for the lighthouse. It is built into a tall rocky plateau that dominates the peninsula and limits access to its beach. It appears to be a square tower about four stories high. Its top is level with the top of the cliff. No mortar lines mark any brickwork in the structure—in fact, it looks as if it had in fact been carved directly from the plateau behind it. The only apertures visible are shuttered windows at varying heights and a wooden door set into a worn stone archway at ground level.The twisted and shattered remains of numerous ships lie scattered across the narrow strip of beach. Pieces of broken hull, torn beams, and other detritus drift just offshore, where a coral reef—obviously the source of the problem—is just barely visible beneath the waves. Crabs and other coastal scavengers pick through the wreckage, and waterlogged refuse of all sorts covers the sand. Thumps and creaks are audible as the waves push wood against wood, and the powerful odor of rot overwhelms the fresh scent of the ocean. Seagulls circle overhead, but not a single seabird lands near the destroyed vessels.[ooc]It's not completely dark yet, but you do need a light source as the sun is rapidly disappearing underneath the horizon.[/ooc]</blockquote>
