What is recorded here

Marianne and I walked to Ture after dark, following a red dot on a forgotten survey app. The grass gave way to a shallow circular dip, smooth as a swallowed chamber. Marianne touched the edge and laughed, not at joy but at recognition. We stood inside the unseen room until dawn, listening for the heartbeat of the house that had vanished.
