What is recorded here

Coolfadda holds a graveyard where the dead have waited longer than most living remember. The site belongs to County Cork, yet even its own shape resists easy description. What is missing is not absence; it is patience. One day the hidden shape will emerge, and Coolfadda will stop pretending the land has no memory.
