Friday 19th October
The army of Connaught was making no headway against Cú Chulainn. He was picking Maeve’s men off one by one. Ferdia, foster brother of Cú Chulainn, is eventually matched against Ulster’s hero. For days they battle it out and by night they assist and nurse each other. They pledge always to be brothers but eventually Cú Chulainn kills Ferdia. Maeve gets her bull but it is a Pyrrhic victory for she loses him soon after. Sadly Cú Chulainn dies of his battle wounds.
