`The grand-daughter of #Lir, god of the sea, #Sinann, visited a well, variously named the well of Segáis and Connla`s well. She ate the fruits of the Tree of Knowledge, although she knew it was forbidden. As a result, the waters of the well rose up, carrying her out to sea and drowning her there.` This way she created the river #Shannon.

Informerat samtycke och en juvelkupp i verkligheten
Förra veckan hade vi en institutionsgemensam sommaravslutning. Även om det är så att vårterminen för vissa av oss på LIR inte riktigt har slutat än – det finns fortfarande betygsmöten att delta i, tentor och uppsatser att rätta och kommentera, sommarkur

`The lovely #Tuag had caught the eye of the god of the sea, #Manannán Mac Lir. As his emissary his bard Fer Í disguised himself a woman and crept into the chambers of #Tuag, where the dwarf sang a lullaby so potent that she fell into a dreamless sleep. Continuing to sing to the girl, Fer Í hoisted her onto his shoulders and carried her away. Later, exhausted from carrying her strong body on his small shoulders, he set her down while he rested. Unfortunately, he chose his resting place poorly, for the waters of the Bann River rose and carried Tuag away, drowning her. She may be the goddess of the Bann River. Its estuary, Tuag Inber, bears her name.`

#Celtic #Mythology: #Aoife was jealous of her fostersister #Aeb, who got #Lir as a husband before her, although #Aoife loved this king dearly. And then #Aeb gave birth to the lovely #ChildrenofLir while the jealous #Aoife was barren.
#Aoife could not bring herself to kill her husband's children, such as she could not have with him because of her infertility. She transformed the #ChildrenofLir into beautiful swans and left them their melodious voices.
Enchanted by Bodb Derg into an air demon, #Aoife watched over the fate of the #ChildrenofLir from the shadows.
