Portmurraghan Island

Portmurraghan Island is a small islet in County Kildare, Ireland. It is the kind of place that resists memory, appearing only when the fog thickens or the water recedes. Some claim it is a doorway rather than a destination, a threshold where the living world thins enough to let through what it usually holds back. Others dismiss it as a cartographer's error, a smudge of ink mistaken for land. Neither explanation satisfies the discomfort of standing at its edge, feeling watched by something that has no shape but knows your name.
