What is recorded here
Garraunnatooha holds a faded ringfort where clay and patience built a boundary against the wild. People may have lived there, loved there, or fled storms inside its curve before memory vanished. The fairies never left. They still walk the ridge at dusk, waiting for someone foolish enough to follow.
