Many are the tales which were once told of the Druid called Mac Criomthann and the adventures which befell him in the years he wandered Ireland - for it was not a man of Ériu that he was, but a Briton, and how he came by his name and his nature in that great island I have told elsewhere. Most of his stories are lost now, or attributed to other heroes and magicians, but these few I have salvaged. I learned them once from an ancient Storyteller, long ago in a distant land. Now I share them with you here...
