Celts once occupied a vast territory of modern France, Belgium, Switzerland, parts of Germany, Austria, Italy, Spain, Hungary and Bulgaria. Nowadays, however, the descendants of the warlike Celts mainly inhabit the historical region of Brittany, Cornwall peninsula, the historic province of Wales, Scotland, Isle of Man and Ireland.

It can be called a paradise holiday destination shower before heading back to our world. So the poet-warrior Oisin with a beautiful fairy Niamh 300 years spent in the other world, before returning to Ireland. Dismounted with a magical horse, Oisin of boys immediately turned into a decrepit old man. Another striking feature of Celtic myth is a love triangle: most often it is the young beautiful goddess or fairy maiden and two men, a young brave warrior and unworldly man. One of them is love, the second rejected, and to conquer the wayward beauty, in the course were weapons, force and witchcraft.
