Diarmuid Ua Duibhne
Irish · mortal · fenian cycle · mortal
The geis is the machinery of this whole cycle and the corpus has no way to record it: it is not a relation, not a domain and not an item, but a binding obligation that makes a person do something against their interest. Diarmuid is under one to take Gráinne and under another never to hunt a boar, and both of them kill him. That the schema cannot express it is a finding for the owner rather than a defect in this record.
