    Summary

    Sometimes, as the winds of Narragansett Bay whip at his cold-flushed face and aching hands, Levi wonders how life has led him here. Here: atop four winding flights of stairs, seventy-three feet in the air, polishing a fifty year old light bulb several times larger than his head.

    His predecessor had complained about the loneliness while showing him around the place. Told him it makes you go mad. Levi doesn’t mind it though. In fact, he finds the isolation oddly comforting. In the middle of the ocean there are no generals or foremen screaming at him to get back to work. There are no sly insults on his stature, or reprimands regarding his attitude. Atop Whale Rock there is only steel, stone, and the occasional seabird cawing overheard.

    ---

    After being dishonorably discharged from the military, the slowly dying Levi Ackerman takes a job as a lighthouse keeper just off the coast. Content in his isolation, (aside from the occasional visit from supply-boatman, Hange) he resolves to spend the rest of his days on the sea tending to the light.

    It's only when a retired, one-armed navy man arrives to serve as a fellow keeper, that Levi has to reconsider if there's something he's been missing.

    Summary

    Sometimes Levi feels like people could walk right through him.
    Days like this, when it snows, he doesn’t feel all that different from one of the billions of snowflakes that litter the streets. Like a ghost.
