What is recorded here

Keevagh still keeps a stone ringfort, yet local memory calls it a fairy fort because the boundary between human and hidden life never fully closed. People may have built the cashel to exclude others or protect what they loved, but the fairies inherited the exclusion and turned it into their own domain. The stones do not explain themselves; they wait for someone stubborn enough to listen past the joke.
