Door 4: The Light Lantern
A small lantern flickers softly in the dark, carrying the powerful truth that no one deserves harm. Lighting this lantern means finding the courage to speak your truth and seek support when you need it. The light shines steadily, showing you a way forward, towards freedom and safety. You can carry this light alone or ask for someone you trust to walk beside you, sharing strength and hope.
