[QUOTE="Gilladian, post: 5849961, member: 2093"] The lighthouse on blueberry bay point, in the Devil Hills, was abandoned about 20 years ago. Before that time, it was occupied by a family who had dwelled there for nearly 100 years, over 5 generations. Each generation, one son or daughter followed his or her parent as the Keeper. Other children left, or settled in the village a few miles down the coast. Until the final Keeper, these men and women had always been good and decent protectors of those at sea, lighting their guide light in all weathers and sending out rescue boats when ships were driven onto the rocky shores despite their warnings. But the final Keeper was a different sort. He was the eldest son of his father, but he did not spend most of his years at the Lighthouse. Instead, at the age of 15 he left, swearing he would never bind himself to such tedious and stressful duty. Instead, his sister was trained to be the 5th keeper. But ten years to the day after he left, he returned, a different man. Aged and worn, he looked 50 rather than 25. But he convinced his sister and father that he was, indeed, their missing son. He swore he had spent the last 10 years as an adventurer, seeking wealth but finding only ruin and exhaustion. He spent only three nights in the Lighthouse before disaster struck. A terrible storm rose up out at sea, unnaturally fierce for the early winter season. And then, for reasons no villager has ever learned, the light went out. A ship was driven up on the rocks, and over a dozen sailors drowned. A strange black boat was seen, rescuing men from the waves, but of those so rescued, none were ever seen again. The next day, villagers approached the Lighthouse to see what had occurred; they found the Lighthouse abandoned, the light smashed, and everyone within missing. Since that night, anyone who tries to remain in the lighthouse overnight during a storm, even just a mild thunderstorm with a little lightning, is found dead, or gone missing. And so, though the coast desperately needs the guiding light from Blueberry Point Lighthouse, none dare stay there when the weather worsens. [/QUOTE]
