Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Cloghatrida

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort

What is recorded here

Marianne and the unknown woman vanished behind the new wall, leaving Arien and the children inside the closed circle. Arien caught Marianne's wrist and pulled her back, but the woman had already stepped through. The children ran after her, their laughter echoing off the stone. Arien followed, not from bravery, but from the certainty that love requires witnessing what others refuse to see.
