A LONG TIME AGO, SOMEWHAT NORTH OF TODAY'S CITY OF PERTH ...

A FAMILY OF WARRIORS IS BORN ... 

DANANN AND MAMM OF PERTH

These two meet, marry, and have several younglings by the time our Story begins.

They are the Patriarch and Matriarch of the Family whose generations comprise the Mamm Books.

Danann’s family, lost to raiders on the shores of Albann, is replaced in his devotion by the Fienne, and then by his own family.

This fire-headed mountain of a man with grass-green eyes lives, laughs, loves – and fights – with enthusiasm, to put it mildly. When Danann laughs, none can resist joining in; when he fights, none can stand against him.

The sun-golden blonde, tall and beautiful Mamm of Perth matches her husband in every way, except that she has a cooler head and doesn’t go berserk in battle. Her sky blue eyes see the world perhaps a bit more clearly.

In their youth the pair of them train as Warrior Druids and together ride with the Fienne of Albann. Where they are needed, there they are – and their word, once given, is irrevocable.

When we meet them they have settled on the family holdings of Mamm of Perth and their family is well-begun and soon to be expanded.

They raise warriors as warriors are needed in that time at that place. Their younglings are Alianora, MammTwo, Corrbed, and twins Sass and Saille.

These two, and so their offspring, are Sidhe, born and bred of a race already ancient – although still a part of the larger Celt and Perchtanne population of Albann.
