#Clídna of the Fair Hair was courted by #Ciabhán from #Ireland, who won her hand in her homeland of Tír Tairngiri, the Land of Promise.
`When it was time for Ciabhán to depart from the #Otherworld, the lovers couldn’t bear to be parted, and stole Manannán’s magical boat, the Wave Sweeper. Back at Glandore (“golden harbor”), #Clídna fell asleep after their long sea voyage, and Ciabhán went hunting for a deer to provide their supper.
Having learned of their treachery, Manannán was furious and sent a huge wave to reclaim the runaway maiden, and so she was swept to her death. The wave which relentlessly pounds the shore there to this day is named in her memory.`
