ANSWER: Cú Chulainn (“koo KULL-in”) [or Sétanta]
[10h] Original language term required. Cú Chulainn is spiritually weakened after he eats a meal offered to him by an old woman, thus allowing Lugaid to kill him and breaking one of these taboos in Irish myth.
ANSWER: geasa (“GASH-uh”) [or geis (“gesh”) or geas]
[10e] The meal the old woman offered Cú Chulainn was the meat of these animals, thus breaking the geis placed upon him. Cerberus was a three-headed one of these animals in Greek myth.
