Episode 247 - The High King - Fire & Fury

Welcome back to the Candlelit Tales podcast. This episode continues our new series on the greatest High King in mythological, pseudo-historical memory: Cormac Mac Airt. This episode tells the story of Cormac’s struggles. Now that he had gained the kingship, he found he had to hold it, and he had promised that he would hold it with wisdom and justice, rather than violence. This proved a difficult task, with warriors from the North who claimed his leniency was a sign of weakness. Please note the content of these stories may be triggering for some listeners, please take care of yourself as you listen. This story includes mentions of public humiliation, violence, and violent death.
