What is recorded here
Battlements of Edinburgh Castle is a castle, fort or tower in City of Edinburgh, Scotland. Perhaps the stones remember every boot and breath that climbed them. Maybe the edge still cuts the wind like a knife. Imagine a hand pressing the rough surface at dusk, feeling the temperature drop.
