The Isles of Sunset

Midway between the twin horns of a deserted bay, jagged rock spires rise from deep blue seas, their tops cloaked in hardy grasses and sea‑herbs. The only sounds are the wind through ferns, the distant call of hawks, and the occasional splash of a lone stream tumbling into the surf. Here lives David, a quiet fisherman turned hermit, whose childhood was marked by loss, hard labour, and a secret, lingering devotion to a distant, seldom‑seen faith.

When a sudden squall claims his uncle’s life and casts David ashore, the solitude of the isles becomes both refuge and mystery. In the hush of twilight he glimpses a pale, diffused light walking upon the water—a figure that seems to rise and fall with the waves, stirring his wonder and his prayers. This haunting vision hints at a deeper purpose waiting to unfold on the stark, beautiful edge of the world.
