- There is a pond a little way down the road where we bring our cow to drink. The old people call it locán an Áire or Ár. they say that the valley where the pond is situated is the "valley of the Black Pig" mentioned in the prophecy.
They say that the last fight preceding the last Day will be fought there. They say that as soon as the fight starts there every body who is able should betake himself to the mountains and let each one bring with him a "stocking" of meal to keep or her in food while the fight is going on. They say that the fight will not last long but that it will be very bloody and that those fighting will be wading knee deep in blood. They say that when that fight is over that the Last Day will shortly come.- Collector
