What is recorded here

Kilvine holds a holy well, a ritual site where clean water rose through soil and memory. People may have knelt at its edge, poured offerings into the dark, or drank until their throats felt certain. The well does not need a date to be true. It is the kind of place where humanity stopped arguing with itself and listened instead.
