"The Legend Of The Fianna: Some Of The Mightiest Warriors From Irish Mythology

The Fianna were a fierce group of warriors that guarded Ireland. The last leader of the group was the legendary Fionn Mac Cumhaill. Fionn is arguably one of the most prominent figures in Irish folklore, alongside the mighty Cú Chulainn.

Joining The Fianna wasn’t a decision that one took lightly. Those who were accepted into the group were members for life – there was no change of hearts allowed."
