A high-born, beautiful young woman from the #Otherworld had approached #Connla. #Coran tried to prevent her from putting Connla under her spell. The #fairy maiden could not resist the magic chants of the druid. She had to give way. But before that she tossed #Connla an apple from the #Otherworld. For a month the prince lived on it alone. But it didn't get any smaller, but remained round and shiny.
The magic spells of the druid #Coran couldn't prevent #Connla from being dominated day & night solely by the thought of the beautiful woman from the #Otherworld. Finally he jumped into her glass boat. He never was seen again.

So sad for #Conn of the Hundred Battles! Not even his druid #Coran could prevent his son from being dominated day and night solely by the thought of the beautiful woman from the #Otherworld. Finally #Connla jumped into her glass boat. His father would never see him again.
