Magic of Ireland

Magic was as important to the people of old Ireland as eating, drinking, and, of course having, cows was.  Magic was the way in which the people could live the way they did, especially with a magical healer.  If you had a magical healer, then you could fight all day.  Then, if you got hurt, you would have a Druid magician at there to heal you so you could feast all night.

At times, the Druid wizard was treasured as much as a king.  They were the closest advisors to the king. They were lawmakers, advisors, and magicians.  Magic was even part of the four treasures of Ireland, for each treasure was granted a special magical ability. 

Other than the Druids of the Celts, there were also banshees, fairies, leprechauns...the magic of Ireland was everywhere.

Because the High Kings of Ireland place such a great importance on these magical people, they wanted to make sure that magic was being represented at the Irish Fest of Kansas City.  A magician is what they asked me for, so a magician is what I got.
