Kwangoko namhlanje Ndivavanye umkhankaso wamva nje Indawo yoTyelelo . Omnye wabalinganiswa bam endibathandayo abaphumelele izidanga yayinguFirbolg, edlalwa nguJustin McElroy. IFirbolg yayingenagama kwaye yayililungu lohlanga oluhlala ehlathini lwezidalwa ezikwaziyo ukunxibelelana nendalo. Wayeluhlaza kwaye mkhulu, inengqiqo ukusukela kwiiDungeons naseDragons I-Firbolg sisiqingatha sezigebenga . Kumdlalo, ii-Firbolgs zihlala zodwa kwaye zihlala ikakhulu namaqela azo ehlathini kodwa ziyothusa xa kufikwa kumlingo kunye nezinye izixhobo.
Ngoku, bendicinga ukuba njengolunye uhlanga kwi-D & D i-Firbolg yenzelwe umdlalo okanye mhlawumbi isekwe kwizidalwa ezithile zefantasy ngokubanzi, njengee-orcs. Khawufane ucinge indlela endothuka ngayo xa ndifunda ezinye zeentsomi zaseIreland ndaza ndadibana nembekiselo yeFirbolg. Kuyavela ukuba iFirbolg yinxalenye yembali yaseIreland yentsomi kwaye inokude ichaze ezinye zezinto eziyinyani ezintsonkothileyo zobomi bokwenyani.
Ngoku, ngaphambi kokuba sithethe ngeFirbolg, kufuneka sithethe ngembali yaseIreland kunye neIreland ngokubanzi, ngakumbi imbali yangaphambi kobuKristu yaseIreland. Njengoko besitshilo kwiveki ephelileyo , amaCelt, ababengabonahlali baseIreland xa abanye abantu baseYurophu beza, babenenkcubeko entsonkothileyo neyakudala eneentsomi nembali edluliselwe kwisithethe somlomo. Oku kuthetha ukuba akukho mininzi kwimithombo ephambili kwimbali yaseIreland ukusuka kwiinxalenye ezithile ezindala kuba akukho nto ibhaliweyo. Ukulandela ukwaziswa kobuKristu kunye neemonki ezazithanda ukuyenza yonke loo nto, ezinye zeentsomi zaseIreland kunye neentsomi kunye neepics zarekhodwa.
Ngoku, ayizizo zonke ezi rekhodi zigciniweyo kodwa ezinye zahlengahlengiswa zabuyiswa kwakhona zadityaniswa kwaye ngaphandle koko, sifumana umsebenzi obaluleke kakhulu obiziweyo i ILebor Gabála Érenn , iNcwadi yokuThathwa koMhlaba weIreland, eyaziwa njenge Incwadi yohlaselo . Isicatshulwa esiqokelelweyo esingaziwayo esivela kwii-1000s sinomdla, kodwa ukuyitsho le ncwadi iyimbali-yembali iyinika ityala elikhulu. Nangona kunjalo, iqulethe uninzi lweentsomi olusisiseko se-Celtic canon nokuba uninzi lwayo luye lwarhabaxa lwaze lwenziwa ubuKristu ukutyhubela iinkulungwane.
Intoni Incwadi yohlaselo Ngaba ithatha lonke iqela leentsomi zoothixo baseIreland kunye namagorha kwaye bayenza ibe ... hayi ooThixo. Zizinto ezininzi kubandakanya umzamo wobuKristu kunye nokuchasana neentsomi zeCeltic kunye nokubonelela ngembali efanayo eIreland. Ixela imbali yase-Ireland kuthotho lweendlela ezintandathu ezahlukeneyo, ewe uqikelele, uhlaselo. Ukubona indlela imbali yaseIreland (kunye neBritane, iWales, neScotland ebumelwaneni kunye neYurophu eninzi) iluthotho olude lokufuduka kunye noloyiso, oku kuyenza ingqiqo. Ikwenza loo nto icaphukisayo yobuKristu ngokudibanisa iinxalenye zeentsomi zamandulo zaseIreland kwibhayibhile.
Ke, ngayo yonke loo nto singayifumana kwi-Fir Bolg (igama linokuba ligama elinye okanye amabini kuxhomekeke, ndiza kusebenzisa amagama amabini abantu basentsomini kunye negama elinye kugqatso lwe-D & D lokucacisa) ngoobani, Ndiyaxolisa ukukuxelela, hayi izihlobo ezinkulu ezihlala ehlathini ezithanda ukutya amaqunube kwaye zithethe noonomatse okanye enye into. Ndizokutsiba ngaphaya kokuhlasela kokuqala kwe-Ireland kwaye ndiye kwiqela elize e-Ireland likhokelwa ngumfana ogama linguNemed. I-Nemed kuphela yayinabantu abambalwa kwiinqanawa zakhe kwaye i-Ireland ngelo xesha yayigcwele ugqatso olubizwa ngokuba yi Ukhuthazo . Ngoku asazi ngokwenene ukuba ngubani uFomoire okanye bavelaphi na ngokusekwe kwiNcwadi yokuhlasela. Zikhona nje… zikhona kwaye zihlobo lweedemon kunye nolunye uhlobo lwehlabathi kangangokuba mhlawumbi ziluhlobo oluthile lothixo wakudala okanye uhlobo lwangaphambili loothixo olufana nezihloko, kodwa ndiyaqikelela nje apha.
U-Nemed uyafa sisibetho, kodwa inzala yakhe ilungile okwethutyana, isusa amasimi kwaye iyonwabele amachibi avela ... ade uFomoire aqale ukubacinezela efuna isishumi sobisi lweenkozo nabantwana eSamhain. AmaNemediya ayaphakama kwaye ngandlela thile amanani abo anyukile kangangokuba bahlanganisa umkhosi wama-60,000! Kwaye babetha i-Fomoire king Conand (yay!) Kodwa banenye inkosi uMorc (booo) owoyisayo kwaye wabagxotha e-Ireland kunye nabanye kubo yiya eGrisi apho bagqilazwe ixesha elide.
Iminyaka engama-300 yobukhoboka eGrisi bababandakanya bephethe iingxowa ezinkulu zomhlaba xa babebe amaphenyane amaGrike babuyela eIreland, babizwa ngokuba yiFir Bolg: amadoda eengxowa, elinyanisekileyo ayilogama loyikisayo. Ke ukubuya kwe-Fir Bolg e-Ireland kubonisa uhlaselo lwesine, kwaye benze kakuhle kakhulu, bada bahlulahlula ilizwe laba lihlanu amaphondo asekelwe kookumkani bawo abahlanu, apho esahlulwe khona.
Kodwa kuthekani ngeFomoire? I-Fir Bolg ibonakala ngathi iyahambelana nazo zilungile, kwaye izinto ziyaphola de kufike uhlaselo olulandelayo UTuatha uDeannann . Ikwabizwa ngokuba yiTuathaEzi zinto zazingoothixo noothixokazi baseIreland, babekwa kwimeko kunye nefom eyahlukileyo. Incwadi yohlaselo Ndizamile ukubenza bangengabo oothixo, kwaye ezinye iinguqulelo ziye zabathoba isidima, kodwa… bangoothixo.
Ukuhlasela kweTuatha Dé kwaqalisa imfazwe enzima kakhulu phakathi kwabo kunye neFomoire, kodwa iFir Bolg yayisecaleni kweFomoire. Yiyo loo nto bathanda ukufumana i-rap embi… cinga, abantu besilwa kwicala likaMordor in INkosi yeeRingi (nzulu, uTolkien waphefumlelwa yile nto kubandakanya inkosi enkulu kaFomoire uBalor, oneliso elikhulu!).
Inkosi yeFir Bolg iyakwazi ukunqumla ingalo yeTuatha Dé king, iNuada, kodwa abasenzi kakuhle kule mfazwe. I-Fir Bolg mhlawumbi yayiqhutywa e-Ireland okanye ekugqibeleni-yayitshatile ngaphakathi kunye ne-Tuatha Dé, njengoko uninzi lwe-Fomoire lwenzayo. Kwaye wonke umntu ekugqibeleni wazola ngexesha lokuhlasela okulandelayo ngu Ookhokho babantu baseIreland . Ngaphandle kokuba yonke le nto ingumngcipheko omkhulu kuba aba bantu bakwangabo nohlaselo lokuqala kwaye… ewe, ubuKrestu buyabhidisa.
Ke, buyela kwi-Fir Bolg kwiintsomi. Babengabantu kulo mjikelo mkhulu weentsomi kodwa ngaba babeyinyani? Ewe, ngubani owaziyo. I-Ireland indala. Mdala kakhulu kwaye ngokwenene waye walungiswa ngamagagasi ahlukeneyo abantu. Kule veki nje, Oososayensi babhengeza ubungqina obuvela kwithambo le-reindeer elixheliweyo elibeka abantu e-Ireland kwiminyaka engama-33,000 eyadlulayo , kwaye iminyaka engama-20 000 ngaphambili kunokuba bekucingwa ngaphambili. Abantu babesakha i-megaliths e-Ireland malunga ne-3 500 BCE kodwa amaCelt ayifikanga de kwangama-500 BCE kwiminyaka yobhedu .
Kungenzeka ukuba iFir Bolg yayingabantu ababehlala eIreland ngaphambi kokuba amaCelt afike kuba senza njalo unerekhodi lamagama eFir Bolg . Okanye babelilungu elinye labantu beCeltic. Abanye bacebisa igama elithi Fir Bolg linxulumene ne Abantu baseBelgium , iqela lezizwe ezivela eGaul kwaye yintoni ngoku eyiBelgium ngubani ngaxa lithile yahlasela iIreland . Kodwa asazi ngokuqinisekileyo kwaphela.
Kwaye ngoku iFirbolg ziyinxalenye yomdlalo wokudlala indima omnandi, ukongeza omnye umaleko kwimbali. Kwaye ngubani owaziyo ukuba umntu othile kwiinkulungwane ukusukela ngoku uzakube ejonge kwiDungeons kunye neDragons yesihlanu incwadi yoshicilelo ngokukhathazeka okufanayo kunye nokudideka esiziva sikwincwadi yeNgeniso, ababesazi ukuba liyintoni elona bali layo yonke.
