Lough Neagh

Lough Neagh

Lough Neagh is a large freshwater lake near the middle of Ulster, Ireland.

History

In the late 8th century, the Viking jarlskona Eivor Varinsdottir of the Raven Clan traveled her way to the small island in the middle of Lough Neagh, after garnering clues from two late drengrs, Hogne Sea-Tossed and Blud the Giant, about their late King of Dublin, Thorgest. Probing the island, Eivor dove underwater near the island and found the remains of the dead king. Searching the remains, Eivor uncovered and retrieved Thorgest's Shield from the waters. To the north of Lough Neagh, a settlement, Inch Lough Neagh, took root besides the lake.

Behind the scenes

Lough Neagh's English name is derived from Irish: Loch nEachach, meaning Eachaidh's lake.
