==Germaine's Lighthouse==
{{Book|
{{BookPage|active=true| Man, this world is super empty. Empty of life, that is.
    You got the farm animals and a few undead stuff, you can also see some stuff from people but...
    I never actually <U>see<U> anyone... ya know?
It's weird. On the station you bumped elbows all the time}}
{{BookPage|Anyway, I finally did something neat.
An abandoned lighthouse. Kind of poetic but I'm not that type of person...
  The interior needs some work done, maybe I'll ask Willie for some tips, I'm sure he'd be happy to help.

{{BookPage|Finally got the place fixed up after <U>WEEKS<U> of sneaking around and trying to get all the supplies. I even visited Rudy to pick myself up a set of wings, though I hang them up now cause I prefer waling. Closer to nature that way.}}
{{BookPage|That blasted light isn't even turning on! I don't understand, the wires are all connected in the right places everything is brand new!
I've set up a temporary light for now, I gotta think of what could be wrong.}}
{{BookPage|Vanessa 100% knows I sneak off during the night, being gone for days at a time. I don't know what she thinks, but she hasn't asked me about it yet.
While I sleep here, I keep having the same dream. I don't have it when at Vanessa's place...}}
{{BookPage|  It always starts the same, opening my eyes to an endless horizon.
  The ground is made of white sand and I don't see anything in the sky.
      I always pick a random direction and have never found anything until... recent.}}
{{BookPage|      After walking for what felt like hours, I see mountains made of a dark stone reaching for that endless sky.
            There was a dip that looked like it opened up to a plateau, so I started climbing.}}
{{BookPage|    As I reach for the
    last step, I wake
    up.
I'm covered in sweat and felt like I haven't slept a wink, I'm thinking of not sleeping here anymore.
...Maybe I should talk to Vanessa about it.}}
