Bevan ThomasOtesánek is a log in a Czech fairy tale that is adopted by a childless couple. The log becomes alive, and the parents are unable to keep their new son fed.

She could run across Ireland in a day, catching the attention of King Concobar mac Nessa. Tasked with raising Deirdre, destined to be Concobar’s concubine, Leborcham told Deirdre about her fated lover, Noísiu. Loyal to Deirdre, the heroine warned her to leave Ireland after she and her lover had been tricked into returning from their Scottish exile, but Deirdre refused. Leborcham then tried another route: She went to Concobar and told him that her hard life in the wilderness had destroyed Deirdre’s beauty, although she remained as radiant as ever. But the king discovered the truth. After Noísiu’s death, Deirdre chose death over being Concobar’s consort.` Source: P.

Neu-Kelte 🌻💙💛🌻<a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/WyrdWednesday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WyrdWednesday</a>: `The Cornish or Breton love triangle of Iseult, her lover Tristan and her husband King Mark parallels the story of <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/Fionn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fionn</a> mac Cumhaill and his bride Gráinne, who eloped at their wedding with the handsome Diarmait. But in the Irish tale the heroine is far less a victim of circumstance and male lust, and much more an active party to the romance.` Source: P.
