βThere were once three werewolves that in their human shape had been the three daughters of the 'Lord of the White Fort'. They had been seen coming out of a cave at the shore and were causing a great deal of destruction in the district, and so #Cascarach, who had the gift of charming, was called upon. While the #elven harper sat at the opening of the cave, luring the werewolves with his enchanted playing, Caoilte lay in wait, his magical spear in hand.
#Cascarach wove a spell that was soothing, calming, lulling the wolves to come forward. As they did so, #Cascarach mocked them for being in wolf shape, saying that they would surely appreciate the full beauty of his music in their own human form. The werewolves agreed, by this time spellbound by the delightful music, and they shed their wolfskins. In that moment #Caoilte acted, throwing his spear through the heart of all three, and thus they were slain.β From the #Irish folk tale 'The Wolf Maids' #Celtic
