What is recorded here
In Moanmore South, a earthen ringfort stands as a fairy fort, its buried walls holding more life than stone. People may have circled it, listened at its edge, or left it alone because the dark inside moved like breath. What is missing is not a fact but a chamber, waiting for someone steady enough to enter and return changed.
