What is recorded here
No visible trace remains, though the land may still hold the buried bone of a cashel. Whether the fort vanished under soil or memory simply released it, the absence becomes the shape. Aughrim keeps what it stops showing, waiting for someone to dig through forgetting and bring the wall back into the world.
