• The Adventure of Nera Aug 14, 2025

  

  In the days when Queen Medb ruled Connacht from her great fortress at Cruachan, she was married to King Ailill, and their court was filled with the finest warriors, the wisest druids, and the most skilled artisans in all Ireland. Among Ailill’s most trusted warriors was a man named Nera, known for his courage, his loyalty, and his unshakeable nerve in the face of any danger.

  It was the eve of Samhain, the most mysterious and dangerous night of the year, when the boundaries between the world of the living and the world of the dead grew thin, and strange things walked the earth. The great feast was in full swing in the royal hall of Cruachan, with warriors boasting of their deeds, bards singing ancient songs, and the fires burning bright to keep the darkness and its terrors at bay.
