The foray of Queen Meave, and other legends of Ireland's heroic age

Set against the mist‑shrouded hills of ancient Ireland, the poem follows the daring queen Meave as she leads a bold expedition that tests the limits of loyalty, fate, and the old ways of war. Through a vivid, bard‑like narration, listeners hear the clash of chariots, the echo of heroic oaths, and the restless whispers of a land on the brink of change.

The work draws from the legendary Táin bo Cuailgne, preserving its rhythmic pulse while pruning the sprawling saga into a compact, dramatic journey. It offers rich glimpses of early Irish customs—war‑chariots, druidic counsel, and fierce tribal rivalries—rendered in language that feels both timeless and accessible. This first act sets the stage for a compelling exploration of courage and destiny, inviting you to step into a world where myth and history intertwine.
