What is recorded here
No credible witness claims to have seen the fort complete. Most describe a shallow dish, a broken ring, or nothing at all when they walked past. That absence is the shape of the claim: Lissatanvally may still be holding its form back, waiting for a reader steady enough to stop inventing and keep one unchanged.
