What is recorded here

Clear water flows through Caherfeenick South, past the quiet field where the ancient fort stands. The earth rampart still marks the boundary between the ordinary world and the hidden realm. People built the fort to keep out the dark, but the fairies turned the tables and used it to keep people out. The fort is complete, the field is clean, and the boundary remains unbroken.
