Our epic journey through the Martial Career of Conghal Cláiringhneach culminates in men standing waist deep in blood. We confront the very questions that have haunted this saga—was the bloodshed truly necessary, or merely the predictable outcome of a society ruled by blade and honor?
Note: When this episode was recorded, it originally was meant to be for season 6. However, as a result of further research, we decided to start with the Mythological Cycle in Season 6. This is a bonus episode and a taste of the new format beginning in the official Season 6: Irish Mythological Cycle.
