'The number of Scots may be proportioned & mixed with English forces in Ulster, that all fear of inconvenience may be removed' in other words the English didn't trust the Scots. While Tyrone had some Scots (& McDonnell a close ally) he was not a fan due to their indiscipline.

The earliest story is medieval! Fergus mac Léti, King of Ulster fell asleep on beach & is dragged into sea by 3 lúchorpáin! He captures his abductors, who grant him 3 wishes in exchange for release! A wish granted was breathing underwater!

Fergus mac Léti, King of Ulster met a sea-monster called Muirdris in Dundrum Bay! His face became contorted in terror! Disfigurement disqualified from kingship so mirrors banned around him! Later he found out. Went back & killed it, but then died of exhaustion!
