金发勇少年爱尔兰的10个神话故事免费探险
从前,在爱尔兰有两个大家族:莫恩家族和巴斯坎家族。两家之间的宿怨,自古以来便如同燃烧的火焰,不断蔓延着。科尔马克国王统治时期,巴斯坎家族的领袖是勇敢无比的古姆哈尔。在一位名为德洛伊的教祭司面前,他被告知了一个令人揪心的命运预言:“你将在结婚第二天,在一场激烈战斗中死于战场。但如果你不结婚,你就能逃过这场灾难。不过,如果你执意结婚,那么你的生存将会成为历史,而你的儿子将会复仇,并以一位伟大的军事指挥官著称。”古姆哈尔没有选择结婚,他继续与莫恩家族进行残酷斗争。
有一天,在靠近克卢奇城的地方,一场史诗般的大战爆发了,结果对巴斯坎家族而言是一次毁灭性的打击,他们失去了英勇领袖古姆哈尔。而莫恩家族则乘胜追击,将几名俘虏带走,并且毫不留情地清剿了巴斯坎人的余孽。许多人逃进深山密林,建立简陋的小屋或躲藏在洞穴中,以避免莫恩家族的手掌。
在森林里,有两位姐姐波尔马尔和莉亚鲁阿乔寻找他们弟弟所做的事情。她们知道德洛伊教祭司的话语中的悲剧,她们也知道他们弟弟试图逃避命运之轮。她们想要探明这个谜团,因此她们来到那座曾经发生战斗的地方,用心观察她的每一个动作。一位年轻女子站在废弃铁匠作坊旁,她身穿长发披肩,与古姆哈尔有着神秘的情感纠葛。当她向姐妹们透露真相时,她讲述了一段充满爱意和牺牲的心路历程:
“当我偶然发现他后,我们私下完成了我们的仪式。他是我生命中的唯一,我无法想象生活没有他。我不知道我是否能成功保护他的孩子,因为已经有人发现我们。”
随后,这个年轻女子带着两个姐妹去到她的小屋内展示一个新生的婴儿:“这是你们哥哥留给我的孩子。我不知道我能多久才能把他安全地隐藏起来……”
最终,她同意让两个姐妹带走那个婴儿,将其送往安全之处,让他得到适当的养育。这群女性前往一个遥远而未知的地方隐居,那里的环境既危险又孤独,但他们坚定地决定为这个孩子创造未来。
随着时间流逝,小男孩逐渐长大,他变得强健、机智,就像狍子一样敏捷。他能够迅速游泳抓住刚起飞的野鸭。他六岁那年,一位神秘的人物出现并询问周围的情况,这些问题持续到了黄昏才结束。在夜幕降临时,小男孩被迫藏入树梢度过了一晚,最痛苦的一夜。
sisters believed that the young man was no longer safe in the forest, so he decided to leave. He joined a group of traveling performers and learned many skills from them. One day, a vagabond attacked them, wounding several performers and sending others fleeing for their lives. The attacker tried to capture him but failed, asking his name as he did so. The young man proudly replied: "My father is the great Gumar."
The attacker suddenly embraced him tightly, tears streaming down his face. He revealed himself to be Fiaciu, a high-ranking officer under Gumar's command who had vowed revenge after his leader's death.
Fiaciu brought the young man back to his humble hut by a marshy area and showed him an old spear once wielded by Gumar but recovered from Moyn Family hands after that battle.
The boy lived with Fiaciu for some time before continuing on his journey alone again.
He arrived at Lake Cullen where he formed close friendships with boys who were fishermen's sons; they called him Feon (meaning "Golden-haired Child"). Initially envied for being faster than anyone else in running or swimming or jumping over felled trees like deer,
Feon realized he needed to leave this place too.
He became an apprentice hunting dog handler at Lord Kelly's residence.
Lord Kelly soon discovered how exceptional Feon was and asked about his name; Feon just vaguely said:
"I'm just an ordinary farmer from Tara."
Lord Kelly looked closely at him before saying:
"You lie! You're not a farmer - you are the son of great Gumar!"
Feon had no choice but leave again.
One day while wandering through woods near Finnegas' hut
he found it empty except for one old wooden bowl filled with fish soup left behind by Finnegas
who then appeared from nowhere telling him there was something important waiting inside.
"Take it," Finnegas said sternly.
Feon hesitated momentarily but took it anyway;
and when finished eating
he saw two flies buzzing above talking about someone named Finnegas cooking wisdom fish
and realizing what happened
he understood why he couldn't eat all of it
And thus began another chapter in this brave warrior’s life story...
