What is recorded here
Aughavinna holds a burial marked only by a database gap, not a visible chamber or named dead person. That absence does not diminish the place; it refuses the usual temptation of inventing a hero for the hole. The living world has already done what it can. The missing file may be completing its own shape, waiting for a human witness stupid enough to stop wanting a story and watch the hole for long enough to learn what it is doing.
