1. [pegasus1000]
Naomh Pádraig

A long time ago, when the world was blue.

Fairies and elves roamed the earth easy to be found. Wearing blue hats and vests, they would dance over the hills and into the night. Celebrated in song and dance they were, then all changed as the turning of the tide. A man came from boat caring an odd symbol. A long shaft with a crosspiece one third of the way down from the top. “Very odd” the fey would say as they danced in the light. “This man he speaks of the sun and of snakes who bite.” But what were these ‘snakes’ he spoke of. As hard as the fey would search there were none of these legless ‘snakes’.

A brave young fairy volunteered to go and ask the strange man where to find these ‘snakes’ so that they could exile them, but when he came close to the man he crushed the brave soul to death. Screaming into the night the fey flew until the man hunted them down and crushed them all.

No one knows why but from that day on people would say that this man had chased the snakes from the land and he was celebrated every year by wearing his color of green.
