Answer:
safety
Explanation:
The balcony is a place where Pheoby feels safe. It is on the balcony that she can expose her thoughts without fear of judgment, where she can tell the true story about herself and where she is protected from the prejudiced, misogynistic and invasive society with which she has to live.
The balcony is therefore a powerful place, where Pheoby can be herself, without fear of judgment, disadvantage and reprisals.
Assonance and alliteration
A semicolons NEVER should be used to try to create a "pause" longer than that achieved by a comma. If you can use a period correctly, then you can use a semicolon correctly. A semicolon is used just like a period, but it is used to separate two complete sentences when the sentences are closely related in meaning.
