Whim Whar is the village’s ferry landing, where departures are dictated less by schedule and more by mood. Wind, whim, and moonlight govern the tide charts here. Travellers may board for errands or epiphanies, with vessels ranging from rowboats to reed-hulled dreams.

The Magpie Report: Before any journey, one must pass through the Purrport. Its staff do not speak, but they see everything. They sniff your intentions, stamp your dreams, and curl atop your documents until they decide you're ready. Many a trip has been delayed by a nap-and many a secret route revealed with a single purr.

Foster connection in the silences and stir magic in the ordinary. Let every faltering letter find its way, every song return home, and every whisper write itself in the wind.

The Wishing Line marks a place of pause and potential-where villagers tie tokens, whisper desires, or leave offerings to time. No wish is guaranteed, but all are received. Overseen by no one in particular, the Line shifts gently with the wind, collecting hopes that may one day be answered.

Beneath fronds of tide-tangled kelp, the Oracle listens. Her voice rises through salt and silence, speaking in patterns of drift and moon-led current. Those who kneel at the strand seek not answers but direction-read in sea-scored shells, kelp sigils, and the long breath of the water’s remembering.

Maerla’s Satryday Page is a weekly dispatch offering celestial insights, tidal notations, and symbolic interpretations drawn from the village’s metaphysical currents. Blending tradition with intuition, it serves as a guide for those seeking meaning in patterns of nature, dreams, and unseen forces.

Above the lough, the stars are not silent. The constellations speak in storylines-threaded across the sky like stitches in old cloth. Each night, constellations unfurl their tales: of wanderers, watchers, beasts and blessings. To read them is to remember what was promised, what was lost, and what still burns with becoming.

Some say the walls of the Weaver’s Cottage are stitched, not built. Thread hums through the air, carrying stories half-spoken and songs that still remember who sang them. If you sit long enough, you may find your own tale has already been woven into the border of a blanket or the hem of a dream.

She sits on the wall, watching the trees breathe. Orla doesn’t speak much-but she sees. She writes with chewed pencils and keeps secrets in jam jars. Her corner is full of whispers, drawings, and things the wind told her when no one else was listening. You’ll find her notes tucked where the light bends.

The books don’t gather dust here-they gather news. In Maeve’s CafÃÂ�, the Library Nook leans into the corner like it’s listening. Pages curl at the edges, warm from hands and secrets. Sometimes you find your own handwriting in a book you’ve never read. Most think Maeve knows how. She says she doesn’t.
