The Lia Fáil, meaning Stone of Destiny, is a stone monument of Isu origin[1] at the Inauguration Mound on the Hill of Tara in Meath, Ireland.
While the legends said that the stone could only be activated by the one true king of Ireland,[2] by the 9th century, the royal poetess Ciara Ingen Medba activated the stone as the last known member of the bloodline. Enraged by High King Flann Sinna's decision to outlaw paganism in favor of Christianity, Ciara took control of his soldiers using the stone. However, after she was confronted by both Flann and the Viking shieldmaiden Eivor Varinsdottir of the Raven Clan, Ciara was convinced to put an end to her plot and the Lia Fáil was subsequently shattered. What was left standing was only a remnant of the original stone.[3]
