Day 21 - Team Sirius - Fic: The Selkie
Team: Sirius
Title: The Selkie
Rating: R
Warnings: Violence, dark themes, implied sexual acts, gore, suicidal thoughts
Word Count: 30,429
Summary: In the hills of Erin there is a castle on a high Tor. From the towers you can see the sea, ever changing and beautiful. Here Prince Sirius will begin a journey that will change his life, and his kingdom, forever.
Notes: This story is set, very loosely, in ancient Ireland (also known as Erin). There are a few terms you should be familiar with when reading this story, and they are:
Tuath: A nation or conglomeration of people. Can refer to an entire kingdom, or just a town.
Tor: A rocky peak or hill, often with a stronghold at the apex.
Ard Ri: The high king, ruler of all of Erin.
Clamproir: Troublemakers. It’s my Celtic version of Marauders.
Tuatha De Danann: The name of the fair folk of Ireland, encompassing most of the fairy creatures, including selkies.
Sidhe: Another name for the Tuatha De Danann.
Fuidiri: The Celtic version of slaves. They were often foreigners or people taken in raids from other tribes. They were traditionally treated rather well, and could earn their freedom in various ways.
Thanks to my incredibly wonderful and remarkably patient beta, C! I could not have done this without you!
