A story inspired by this tattoo · fiction

At the Gorse Stile crossing the toll was paid in small coin or in a true answer, and the keeper's daughter had charge of both since her father's knees gave out. Every autumn the drovers brought their cattle up from the Welsh side, and every autumn a black bull came up the track alone, its horns curved like two new moons, and stood at the bar until somebody spoke to it.

Nobody had ever seen it take coin. Tamsin, who kept the inn on the far side, said it had come over the Severn in a flood year and would walk back if it were given a riddle it could not answer. So the girl leaned on the gate and asked it what a ring was when it had no beginning and no end. The bull lowered its head, considered the question for the length of a slow breath, and pushed a circlet of worn brass across the sill with the tip of one horn. Then it turned and went back down the track the way it had come.

The brass was warm from the sun, and on the inside someone had scratched a tally in rows, a stroke for every crossing her father had made in thirty years, with a small cross beside the ones who had not come back to the stile. She counted them until her thumb ached. Then she hung the ring on the nail beside the gatepost, where the drovers could see it, and the next morning she let the first herd through without asking anyone for their names.
