• The Coming of Lugh Aug 12, 2025

  

  In the ancient days when the Tuatha Dé Danann ruled Ireland, there came a time when their greatest need would be met by an unexpected arrival. The court at Tara was holding its great assembly, with all the nobles and champions of Ireland gathered in the magnificent hall that shone like a second sun upon the hill.

  King Nuada of the Silver Hand sat upon his throne, restored to rule after Dian Cécht had crafted him a new hand of silver. Around him sat the greatest of the Tuatha Dé Danann: the Dagda with his mighty club, Goibniu the divine smith, Dian Cécht the physician, Credne the metalworker, Luchtaine the carpenter, and many others. Each was master of his own art, and together they formed the most skilled assembly ever gathered in Ireland.
