What is recorded here
Indicated is a fairy fort in County Mayo, an earthen ring where human history thins into myth. Its ridge may have marked a boundary, a home or a warning, yet no clear record preserves that purpose. The land keeps its shape while memory fades, inviting imagination to fill the gap.
