Welcome to the beginning of the Orkneyinga Saga, in this episode we are introduced to the legendary past of the island, with each new podcast we will journey the Saga together as I narrate the tale.
Written by an unknown scribe around 1200, the saga tells of the history of the earls of Orkney, when these Scottish islands belonged to the Viking world. With heroes, villains, and themes such as murder battle sorcery and feuds; this is a story worthy of telling.
Today we have a wonderful version of Edain the Queen from Lady Wilde's Legends, Charms and Superstitions of Ireland. Listen to the tale of Edain the beautiful, who is stolen away from her King of Tara, by Midar of the Tuatha-de-Danaan.
