What is recorded here
No visible trace remains at Crag, though local memory still shapes the hidden fort. It is not absence, but transformation. The earth has taken back what human hands built, pulling stone and soil into its own unseen form. What looked like loss may have been completion. The fort did not disappear; it stopped being human.
