      ​@@Tony4You I forget the ballad that covers this but it's a common belief on the isles that becoming a guardian of faeries changes you physically. Namely what we commonly call elves in fantasy literature. Tam Lin is also known as the Elf Knight. Also of note he is rescued from the Queen of Faeries in the ballad Tam Lin which is from the Scottish border. We'll never know for certain but it seems like someone heard the tale of Cu Chulainn and possibly made Tam Lin based after his life ends in his story. This thing supposedly happens a lot and it wouldn't surprise me if somehow it was kept around because someone recognized the inspiration. Especially with how popular Cu Chulainn is in both his time and after. It reminds me of that one knight from Arthurian myth that had the same thing happen to him and has stories inspired by what is obviously the knight of the round table.

      And the reason why I fell in FGO hell hole is because it has both Cu and Scathach (she was my first favorite demon/persona) in it

    Fun Fact: In Brazilian Portuguese, Cú means "Asshole".
    Also, while Cu Chulainn was training with Scathach, he ended up sleeping with her daughter, Uathach and given his immense strength, accidentally broke her fingers. Her screams of agony alerted her actual lover, Cochar Croibhe, and forcing the two men to fight. After killing Cochar, Cu Chulainn agrees to take his place and become Uathach's lover, with Scathach promising to marry her daughter off to Cu Chulainn.

      @@adiyogi22 They were vows Celtic warriors took. For example, Cu Chulainn vowed never to eat dog meat as one of his penances for slaying the Hound of Culann. This vows would grant them a boon or blessing so long as they were not broken. As part of the plan to slay Cu Chulainn, Queen Medb made many tricks and crafted several situations that forced him to slowly break all of his vows, thus weakening him to a point he could be defeated.

    • @lenleon3699
      @lenleon3699 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@adiyogi22 It’s just an alternative spelling I believe. I think the idea to call the ability “Geass” is because for the Geass users their abilities can be both a blessing and a curse. The core of an Irish Geas is that they are considered both a curse and a blessing and that they are vows or contracts with specific commands. I forgot to mention the whole irony of Cu Chulainn’s vows is that he has one that forbid him from eating dog meat, and another that forced him to eat any food offered to him by a woman. You can see how Medb screwed him.

      It shows the idea that a woman's capacity for giving birth is a bridge between mortality and godhood. It's a relationship between the temporal and the infinite which centers upon the womb.
      The reason for this correlation is because that's why people make babies too, as a way of reaching for the infinite in spite of their mortal limits.

    @BoostedMonkey05 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    there are multiple interpretations of Cu Chulainn's death. One was due to wounds suffered in battle especially his tragic battle with his training partner, Ferdiad, during his time with Scathach. This was the time that the Gae Bolg was actually used. Ferdiad dies a tragic death humiliated by Queen Medb and killed by his best friend.
    The other is the one mentioned in the video but the death was even more metal than was talked about. Cu Chulainn tied himself to a standing stone *WITH HIS OWN INTESTINES* so he could face his enemies in battle. His enemies are unsure if he is alive or not until a raven lands on his shoulder. The raven is believed to be the Goddess of a Warrior's Death, Morrigan (basically she is the grim reaper for soldiers which our boy here had a lot of shenanigans with). Once it became clear that Cu Chulainn is dead, they attempt to chop his head off but suddenly, his body starts exploding with holy light and when the light fades, the would be decapitator has his arms lopped off.
