Summary
The song echoed through Phil’s house, his head rising slightly from his work. It echoed like something familiar but ethereal, and made him yearn for something more. He hadn’t felt this way in months. His aching heart made him fling open the shutters that barred his windows and stare out at the open sea.
The stars reflected on the water like a mirror and they gazed back at him like an endless abyss.
He could imagine the feeling that stirred in his soul for the first time in almost a decade.
Freedom.
. . . .
tl;dr:
A house that rests on the edge of a cliff and overlooks the ocean. The village is not allowed to see the water or be out at night.
Phil has lived in the house for years and has never left.
Not in the day at least.
. . . .
Title from Nocturnal Me by Ghost
