What is recorded here

Ballyhine holds a burial site in County Mayo, though no visible marker remains to identify it. The land may have swallowed a life so completely that only the memory of loss persists beneath the grass. What was buried there has returned to the earth, leaving behind a quiet absence that still shapes the place.
