№ 1
Samhain: The Tryst of the Dagda & The Mórrígan
On the eve of Samhain, the veil thins, the mounds of the síd open, and the fate of gods and kings hangs at the ford of the river. Trapped for seven years under the brutal tribute of the Fomorians, the Túatha Dé Danann face their darkest hour. As battle looms at Mag Tuired, the Dagda journeys into the cold shallows of the Unshin to meet the Mórrígan—the Phantom Queen washing the bloody armor of the slain. From their tryst springs a terrifying prophecy of triumph, ruin, and renewal that will reshape the sovereignty of Ériu.
