Offerings

Aegna, a small island that from its shores has always observed the Estonian capital Tallinn. It
hosted few settlements of fishermen in its golden days, a soviet base in the darkest ones, and
nowadays abandoned constructions along with wild nature. Now the population is accounted to be
of six people, who are not to be found despite any effort; mainland dwellers fleeing the city for a
greener place are instead the only humans that can be spotted. Exploring the island I've indeed
found a summer centre for Buddhist meditation and a couple of monks in spiritual retire, but then
only ran-down or even crumbling facilities of the soviet era, new built estates with the typical traits
of the Scandinavian architecture, spiritual spots for offerings to unknown deities, as well as many
other puzzling and inapprehensible things, like feathers scattered on a pathway for an instance. Not
the actual inhabitants though, except the ones buried in the local cemetery, which counts dozens of
tombstones on a musky field adorned by lichens. Here the people are at the best just an ephemeral
phenomenon, solely consistence of the residuals of their past existence.
