The crannog of the clan Niall, near the shores of the Lough Mask. The time is before Patrick is known and tales of a "once and future king" have not been heard. Clans known as the Celts clash with each other over the least argument. Clan rulership falls to the Conn Finn (a position usually held until death), and education and spiritual leadership resides with the Druids.

Our current active archive threads are both from the year 2000! Brandubh Niall is reposting Journeys, a magical trip to the land of the UnSidhe, and Saoirse (Red Terror) Niall is posting The Return of Coirpre's Daughter, a tale of interwoven and complicated family ties and succession. Both come from our AncientSites days!





Always remember to forget
The things that made you sad.
But never forget to remember
The things that made you glad.

Always remember to forget
The friends that proved untrue.
But never forget to remember
Those that have stuck by you.

Always remember to forget
The troubles that passed away.
But never forget to remember
The blessings that come each day.
