Brecon Beacons, Wales. Fires burned at the peaks of the Beacons warned the Welsh of the approach of English armies in ancient times; today, the Beacons are part of a chain of similar peaks across the country that are set alight when the nation celebrates a great occasion or event.

When you miss me just look up to the night sky and remember, I'm like a star; sometimes you can't see me, but I'm always there.
OH MY GOSH 
it's just a regular novel--albeit one for kids, if that helps...
