[ Stories are his thing, even though he's a lot more cagey when they happen to be about him. But this one- this one is quite simple, and one wikipedia search away anyway. ]
I was, what, six? Seven, I think. Like other boys I wanted to be a warrior, big famous one- so kids my age we played games, and punched each other in the face. [ The usual childhood stuff ] Then my uncle [ King Conchobar, but that's not that important detail here ] found me, and told me there is this big feast happening at smith's Culainn house, and I should come to join them.
But feasts are for grown-up, and we had a game to play so I promised to join them soon. Then we played till it was way too late. [ He chuckles ] You know what I'm talking about, right? Or are you the rare type that is always on time?
