|Description=Having been driven out by Tuathal Máelgarb, Díarmait mac Cerbaill flees across Loch Rí and the Shannon. At the same time, Ciarán comes to Druim Tiprat to found a monastery, travelling with a group of 8 on the lake and one of 200 on land. At that spot they light a fire.

Diarmait sees the flame by the time he has reached Snám Dá Én. His druids tell him that the flame is meant to burn forever, but (as the boats reach Tipra Fingin, then Port nGrencha) Diarmait insists that it should be extinguished.

Diarmait meets Ciarán, who tells him that he is there to build a little church, which will be called Eclais Becc. Diarmait allows Ciarán to put his hand over him and Ciarán tells him that he will be king of Ireland the following day.

The following day, Máel Mór Uí hArgata, a fosterbrother (''comalta'') of Diarmait, goes to Tuathal at Grellach Eilte (southeast of Ros Ech) and runs his spear through him. Máel Mór is killed shortly thereafter. This is related in the tale ''Echtra Máil Móir''.
 
(Aside: Máel Mór, Diarmait's third fosterbrother, belongs to the Uí Chonaill of Muirtheimne. The others are Luchta of Athferna and Enna mac Uí Laigsi)
