What is recorded here

Earl Haig Statue, Edinburgh Castle is a castle, fort or tower in City of Edinburgh, Scotland. Perhaps the stone guard watches gates no longer walked, his shadow stretching across chambers where kings once listened to fear. Maybe his hands still tighten around an invisible sword whenever wind climbs the ramparts. Imagine him young then, learning that visibility is a wound and endurance is the proof.
