What is recorded here

Manning and Ballynahow stand as a battlefield in County Cork, though no date, winner or event has survived to explain the bloodletting. The land holds a gap where memory should be, forcing imagination to fill the silence with ghosts and forgotten choices. What is certain is that violence happened there; what is lost is why.
