What is recorded here

Inchiquin holds a burial ground where the dead have waited patiently for centuries, unseen beneath the Galway soil. The living may have walked past it, planted crops above it, or forgotten it entirely, yet the bones remained anchored to the place. Forgetting does not erase the dead; it only redirects their patience.
