Standing stone in Castledrum

Standing stone

What is recorded here

Stand behind the stone in Castledrum at sunset and watch its shadow stretch across the valley like a black finger pointing at Dingle Bay. The stone has watched herds pass, storms break, and children chase each other through grass for generations without asking permission. It does not need a date or a name because it is still doing the same job: marking the edge of the known world and waiting for someone to notice.
