The Tower That Watched
Episode 1 – The Silent Guardian
For years, the giant steel tower stood on the hill, watching quietly over the village below. To most, it was nothing more than an electric pylon, carrying power from faraway stations to the city beyond the horizon. But to twelve-year-old Amani, the tower was alive. He often climbed halfway up its frame to sit and gaze at the world, whispering his secrets into the humming wires that crackled faintly in the air.
Amani’s mother always scolded him, warning that the tower was dangerous. But he couldn’t resist. He swore he could feel the tower respond when he spoke- vibrations running through the steel like a voice answering back. In a community where life was tough and dreams were rare, Amani found a strange friend in the structure above them all.
