A story inspired by this tattoo · fiction

Dearest Ilse, the ferry no longer runs past the Saltmarrow flats, so I write from the inn at Corrow Ford, where the landlady has promised me a dry bed and only two lies a day. The surveyors have finished the eastern charts. Master Hobb wanted the three hills drawn as one triangle, which I thought foolish until I saw them from the ridge at dusk, standing in a row like men who had quarrelled and then forgiven one another.

The ring stone is still there, a grey circle of rock in the bracken above the ford. The old men say that anyone who crawls through it at midsummer will see their own grave, which I did not try. Hobb dropped a plumb line from the peak straight through the stone's centre and marked the spot with a blue cross. Beneath his cross was a faded one, made two hundred years back by the first surveyor, and he showed me both as if the land itself had been keeping a record.

Last night I asked him why the line mattered. He said a map is only a promise that you will find your way home, and that the cross is there so whoever comes after will know where the road bends. Then he poured me a cup of cider and told me to write it down properly, because my letters have been all loops and no sense. So here it is, plainly: the road bends at the stone. Keep the lamp lit in the window on Tanner's Row.

I will be back before the thaw, mud and weather allowing. Tell Mother the cross is blue and the hills are green, and that I have not lost the chart. Always, Tobias.
