Description

Who is that poor old woman in a threadbare shawl sitting outside a ramshackle abode? Don't let her sweet, innocent appearance fool you. She is the Cailleach Bhéara. She is winter. She is old age. She is the Crone.

The Cailleach is one of the most important goddesses in the Celtic pantheon and one of the most feared. She is the mother of hags and banshees. A sentinel of time, she guards many secrets of past, present, and future. She dwells at the edge of the world where the land is barren and sea would chill you to the bone.

Some say she has died and been reborn many times. That she becomes maiden, mother, and crone in an endless cycle. Only she could tell you true. But careful, dearies, there's always a price for magic and knowledge.
