The top of the lighthouse, with its glass encasement for the unlit beacon that will signal a warning to passing ships. The rust has continued as they made their way upward and is in this area with a vengeance — the metal and glass doorway to the balcony around this level has been rusted in place, a thick caking of the substance gluing the seam at the doorway into a firm position.
The wind snakes in through open door and whips around the tall building itself, and from this vantage point they can see down to the ocean (grey and angry), a wide expanse of sky (grey and angry), and the cliff upon which the lighthouse sits (grey and angry). If they go to the "back" of the balcony, they can see the small outcropping of the cliff, the forest that extends beyond, and to the left, the stretch of the town.
