Описание: Somewhere near Dornach, Switzerland. 17th August 2020. That was the day I walked through three countries on foot—Germany, France, and finally into Switzerland. By the time I reached the ridge where I stopped, my legs had carried me nearly 30 kilometres.

But the distance isn’t what I remember most. What stays etched in my mind is the sky. Not a stormy sky filled with rolling thunderheads but a single cloud, drifting alone. It wasn’t ordinary—it pulsed with constant lightning, glowing and cracking from within as though it were charged with a secret energy. The rest of the horizon was quiet, muted, almost indifferent, while this one cloud tore itself open with flash after flash.

I stood watching, caught between awe and unease. There was no rain, no wind, no storm to explain it—just this isolated tempest suspended above me. Later, I learned that a lone cloud can sometimes build enough charge on its own to spark again and again, its energy trapped inside, never quite reaching the ground. But in that moment, I didn’t think about science.

It felt otherworldly, like stumbling upon a performance meant for no one, yet I was there to witness it. I added sound effects later for dramatic effect—but honestly, the silence of that strange storm cloud was louder than thunder.
