The famed warrior Finn goes on a quest into Tir n’
Og (pronounced tear-ah-naug), the Celtic land of eternal youth and
happiness. At the end of his stay, he persuades an enchanted bagpiper
to leave paradise and journey with him back to the world to join
the Fianna (military elite of ancient Ireland) as their piper. His
enchanted pipes stir the troops and summon their spirits to the
task, defending the Celtic realm from any and all enemies. The piper
travels with Finn for a time, but grows restless, tells Finn that
the Fianna do not need him to play in order to fight and that his
ability is needed elsewhere. Finn releases him, and for the next
300 years he roams the Celtic lands, his music awakening people
to seek out the beauty and grace which lives within them.
