but I wanted to say that this scene is similar in some respects to one I've imagined myself as the other side of the mortal curtain.

I knew the image I wanted to accompany the post, but I got lucky with this precise still. I didn't recognize it at the time, but I was following Alison's own thoughts, speaking of the grassy hillside where she's watching the clouds with Colpeper and of her fiancé who was "lost by enemy action": "If there's such a thing as a soul, he must be here somewhere. He loved this hill so much."

(The icon represents another one--you can probably see the similarities.)

The line of the sea looks like a good endpoint to me.
