Sources for The Mermaid Saint (below)

From medieval manuscripts to 19th century retellings.

The Mermaid Saint

This first story is an Irish legend, derived from medieval sources. It takes place in both golden ages of Irish mythology: the pre-Christian era of heros and giants and the early Christian age of saints and miracles. The story is retold in the same mixed-culture as the medieval sources.

This is my first experiment in the minimalist writing style I explain in the About page. It was written slowly and is meant to be read slowly.
