Táin Bó Cúailnge — The Cattle Raid Begins

On the green hills of ancient Ireland, a restless ambition takes root—Queen Medb of Connacht schemes to possess the most prized bull in all the land, igniting a conflict that will echo in legend. Warriors rally and kingdoms prepare, for it is not only cattle at stake, but pride, prophecy, and the fate of clans. As Queen Medb and King Ailill send forth their mighty host against Ulster, a young champion named Cú Chulainn alone stands in their path, bound by honor and an unbreakable courage. Shadows of betrayal and the whispers of fate swirl around the armies as kin battle kin, and every clash of spear and shield raises the question: what sacrifices will be demanded in the pursuit of power and glory? This is a tale where loyalty is tested and heroes are forged, reminding us that true strength is measured not by might alone, but by the choices we make when all seems lost.
