A woman in a beautiful white gown stands at the edge of the sea looking over the ocean. Behind her a bunker lies partly buried in sanddunes. It is pristine white inside. A house built entirely of stone connects to another by a wooden footbridge crossing over a ravine. The house is unadorned except for two simple chairs at a plain yet solid table. Dinner is set for one. The stone walls are scoured white. There is a vault within one wall, which reveals itself to be a candlelit altar.

I walk through a garden of fruit trees and emerge to see a huge, decaying house. The kitchen is dusty and messed as if the house became uninhabited suddenly and has been that way for ages. Walking up the stairs slowly I reach the first floor and find a boarded door at the landing. The floor falls apart in front of my eyes and I can see down through the structure of wooden beams. The floor moves beneath my feet and I have a panic attack. Then I am walking into a new room with open space and white walls. Opposite me, against the wall is a huge bed. The room appears to alter before me into a colossal sacral room full of windows. Looking out upon the landscape through the glass window, I can see that the house is in the center of the ocean.

In the distance a storm is on the horizon. The sound of the forces of nature, roar of the waves and the darkening sky assault my senses. I look over the ocean and at the horizon the light turns into a golden landscape.
