What is recorded here

No sane person calls that cave Poll Ballygoonaun. The name resists the tongue, which means the place is still alive inside the mouth. Ballygoonaun is not a town or a postbox. It is a chamber in the body of Clare, and the chamber has rules. A person may visit with permission, leave behind no marker, and return knowing less about the edge of the world. That is not failure. That is the cave teaching the limits of human certainty.
