Write a concise summary of this excerpt from a novel, focusing on the protagonist's key dilemma: 

"The air hung heavy with the scent of salt and seaweed.  Elara stared out at the vast, churning ocean, the grey waves crashing against the rocky shore.  She had come to this isolated island seeking solace, a refuge from the relentless whispers of her past.  But the island, too, held its own secrets, secrets that echoed in the wind and whispered through the ancient pines.  She had come for peace, but found only a deeper, more unsettling kind of unrest.  Now, she was torn.  Should she embrace the unknown, venture into the island's heart, or retreat back to the familiar shores of her pain?"

As the Writers Guild of America strike continues into its third day, the jokes aren't on late night TV anymore — they're on the picket lines.

From mini rooms to streaming, things have changed since the last big writers' strike
The standoff could last months and shut down Hollywood production. (The last writers' strike lasted from November 2007 into February 2008.) Some of the sticking points include questions over staffing levels for new TV programs and income from episodes aired on streaming services.
Response: Negotiations between the Writers Guild of America and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers stalled, causing over 11,000 movie and television writers to stop working. The strike could shut down Hollywood production, and there are questions about staffing for new programs and income from streaming services.  

Your task is to generate more pairs that maintain this level of clarity and detail. The topic is Summarization. Write a long text of instruction by yourself, then summarize the given instruction in a response. Ensure that the responses are informative and accurate, suitable for an educational context. 

Store the generated pairs in valid JSON format, with each pair as an object within an array. Each object should have two key-value pairs: "instruction" and "response". For instance: 

{"contents": [{"instruction": "text", "response": "text"}, {"instruction": "text", "response": "text"}, ...]} 

Remember to maintain consistency in the format and ensure the generated pairs are diverse and cover a broad range of subjects. You must return the response in the asked format and you must not add any additional text in your response.
