Series Miniarium [1] / Smartphone Wallpaper Archive

*Miniarium is a coined word referring to a small world enclosed within everyday objects. [Those Living Beneath the Silver Tower] Every morning, water falls from the sky like a river. It calls waves to our cove, gently rocking the ships in the harbor. The village elders say that the silver tower controls the tides and wind. On days when the water flows, fish return to the cove in abundance, and the seaweed sparkles blue. Children pick up stones from the shore, and the lighthouse keeper polishes the white wall, gazing up at the sky. Occasionally, a giant shadow crosses the sky— people whisper that it is a "giant" from the outside world. When the water stops, the sea sleeps, and the wind dies down. In that silence, we wait for the next tide.
