The Dirge of Endless Mourning

The stories of old Ireland have suffered throughout their long lives. Often misrepresented or misunderstood, the truth often lies not far beneath the murk that hides it. "The Dirge of Endless Mourning" explores this relationship between the shallow, often twisted portrayal of Irish folklore and the true inspiration behind the tales through figures such as Biddy Early, a wise woman and healer, continually denounced and ostracized by the local clergy as an associate of evil. The forlorn and sorrowful Bean Sídhe, a cursed soul doomed to mourn eternally, widely regarded as a figured to be feared, not pitied.
