In the realm of a mythical isle, lived the captivating Niamh, a beautiful inhabitant with a heart as pure as the morning dew. One fateful day, as she rode her mystical horse Enbarr, fate intertwined her life with that of the valiant Irish hero Oisin. Their eyes met, and an undeniable spark of love ignited between them, sealing their destinies together.

In a heartbeat, Oisin was spellbound by Niamh’s charm, and without hesitation, he agreed to venture across the vast waves with her to the legendary land of Tír na nÓg. There, they were blessed to live in eternal love and youth, untouched by the passing of time for three centuries.

Despite the paradise they shared, Oisin couldn’t help but yearn for his family and homeland. Sensing his inner turmoil, Niamh selflessly lent him her enchanted horse to return to Ireland, with a warning not to touch the ground or risk losing the way back.

Back in his homeland, Oisin was met with heartache, as everyone he knew had long departed, and the once-familiar land had transformed. Filled with longing for Niamh and Tír na nÓg, he set forth on the journey back. Yet, a tragic twist awaited him when he dismounted to aid some locals with a heavy stone. The moment his feet touched the earth, Enbarr vanished in a silvery flash across the waves, leaving Oisin to age rapidly, burdened with the weight of his memories.
