LIGHTHOUSES
“There are times when the ocean is not the ocean-not blue, not even
water, but some violent explosion of energy and danger: ferocity on a
scale only gods can summon. It hurls itself at the island, sending spray
right over the top of the lighthouse, biting pieces off the cliff. And
the sound is a roaring of a beast whose anger knows no limits. Those are
the nights the light is needed most.”
– M. L. Stedman, The Light Between Oceans

i like to think of star wars set on earth in the 70s.

Well, there’s Goldberry. River-Daughter and wife of Tom Bombadil, both of whom always get cut from the movies. I want to draw a few more less well-known Tolkien characters before I move on. Maybe someone from the Silmarillion. We’ll see.
