THE HOOD OF CROTHRAINNE
"Gold is its woof, silver underneath it, soft to the skin is its lining; you will be hound, man, or deer, as you turn it, as you change it." - A Rí Richid, Réidig Dam
The 12th Century poet Gilla in Chomded húa Cormaic is credited as the author of a poem known as A Rí Richid, Réidig Dam, which contains an episode involving the exploits of Fionn Mac Cumhaill and the Fianna. At the end of this episode, we are told of Fionn's most marvellous possession: the magical Hood of Crothrainne, a woven mantle fashioned in the Land of Promise that can change the wearer's shape. Any tales of Fionn using this power have been lost, but the significance of both hounds and deer to the Fenian cycle remains an ever-present motif.

Art of my boi, my cinnamon roll, Oisean (Ossian), son of Finn McCool in Irish and Scottish mythology and folklore. I may or may not be writing a celtic epic poem in which he is the main character…

I haven’t posted about this yet, but after my partner and I got Married earlier this month, we brought home a kitten. His name is Fionn (Fionn Mac Cumhaill, leader of the Fianna) and he is the most rambunctious lad we have ever encountered. Here are some pictures!

Straif - /St/ or /Sw/ very very little is truly known about the name of this ogam, even the sound value is in question, that being said it is reasonably to assume that the late medieval glossaries definition of "sulfur" is probably linguistically inaccurate (especially since the glossaries assume this definition based on 'red sulfur' in alchemy, also known as the philosopher's stone) . My personal current theory is that the letter name refers to (or perhaps was copied incorrectly at some point from) scaíle - "Illusion, shadow, reflection" How is this a refence to reddening you may wonder, I believe that the kennings are in reference to the story of Finn McCool and the Giant's Causeway.
MM: tressam rúamnai- "strongest reddening"
MO: mórad rún- "increase of secrets"
CC: saigid nél "seeking of clouds"

Hey! So I read some very nerdy stuff, mainly Fairytales, folklore, myths, legends, that kind of stuff and I have decided to make a bookclub on Fable for that!
Right now I am reading The Green Hero and am using the bookclub to take notes and write my thoughts about each story, but if anyone would like to join I would be absolutely delighted!
Some other stuff I plan on reading in the future (on this very nerdy bookclub specifically) would be The Merry Adventures of Robinhood and Laboulaye's Fairy Book, among many others.
So if that sounds like something you might find interesting feel free to stop by! Whether it is just to read my notes, or to join in and converse!

The narrator’s lack of knowledge of Irish mythological figures is ruining my viewing experience.

Shadow and seer-Fionn-Elriel
Hofas spoilers
This is just a speculation but in hofas Silene gave this information.
My mother eventually trusted only Helena and myself to seek the truth. She knew we could be of great use to her, because we bore the shadows as well as starlight.
Helena and Silene both have shadow and starlight power.
Theia= starborn
So they got the starlight power from Theia. They must have gotten their shadow power from Fionn then? Bc he is their father.
So this made me think...in mythology fionn is a seer.
Fionn mac Cumhaill often anglicized Finn McCool or MacCool, is a hero in Irish mythology, as well as in later Scottish and Manx folklore. He is the leader of the Fianna bands of young roving hunter-warriors, as well as being a seer and poet. He is said to have a magic thumb that bestows him with great wisdom. He is often depicted hunting with his hounds Bran and Sceólang, and fighting with his spear and sword. The tales of Fionn and his fiann form the Fianna Cycle or Fenian Cycle (an Fhiannaíocht), much of it narrated by Fionn's son, the poet Oisín.
So what if...fionn in acotar was also a seer? What if that's how elain and azriel are also connected?
Bc that would mean...
Fionn: a seer and shadow powers
Elain: a seer
Azriel: shadowsinger
Is that how they are connected? Is that how elain could use the tt? 👀👀
Bc we know tt and gwydion are twin to each other. And Gwydion was Fionn's sword. Tt was his friend's—Enalius.
And in acowar elain used tt. Maybe bc that's the reason why. Maybe being a seer has some kind of connection to it. Just like being a starborn is connected to wielding the gwydion and its powers.
But as a black blade broke through the king’s throat, spraying blood, I realized someone else had. Elain stepped out of a shadow behind him, and rammed Truth-Teller to the hilt through the back of the king’s neck as she snarled in his ear, “Don’t you touch my sister.”
And we know from Bryce that knife has some kind of shadow powers.
Bryce threw her power into the Starsword, light ripping through the black blade, willing it to tear this fucking monster apart—She willed it into Truth-Teller, and shadows flowed—
So that's all.
