Item description
Díarmait has seen Ciarán’s flame by the time he reaches Snám Dá Én. His druids tell him that the flame is intended to burn forever, but (as the boats reach Tipra Fingin, then Port nGrencha) Díarmait insists that it should be extinguished.
Díarmait meets Ciarán, who tells him that he is there to build a little church, which will be called Eclais Becc. Díarmait allows Ciarán to put his hand over him and Ciarán tells him that he will soon be king of Ireland, as God decides.
