Coastal Hideaway

Moss Cottage

The cottage is a squat, weathered structure whose timbers sag under decades of damp coastal air. The interior walls lean slightly, forcing occupants to navigate a space that feels alive with unsteady angles. A single oil lamp hangs from a low beam, its flickering light catching motes of dust as it illuminates a cluttered living area dominated by a squat wooden table littered with hunter’s tools—an oilcloth draped over shells, a half-empty bottle of peaty spirits, and Martha’s threadbare blanket slipping from a rickety chair where she now dozes. The adjoining kitchen opens through a crooked doorway, its surfaces worn smooth by years of use and holding the scent of damp wool, old woodsmoke, and the recent acrid tang of discharged gunpowder. When Tyler brews tea on the stove, the kettle’s hiss mixes with the cottage’s groan under the Fendahl’s rising psychic pressure, creating an incongruous soundtrack of domestic ritual and cosmic threat.
