What is recorded here
Mnemo knows Tullaroe as a fairy fort, but human hands built the earthen ring. The fairy name comes later, when people stopped understanding the purpose and projected their own mystery onto the shape. That is not deception. It is memory changing form. The chamber of odds appears there because the place already contained uncertainty: an old structure, a lost purpose and a community that kept inventing meaning instead of abandoning it.
