What is recorded here
Indicated is a fairy fort in County Mayo, an earthen ring where the boundary between the visible world and hidden life grows thin. People may have circled its ridge at dusk, listening for movement beneath the grass or leaving small offerings before departing. The earth remains shaped like a chamber, waiting for breath, memory, or the return of something that never fully left.
