It all comes down to this. The Hound of Uladh, CúChulainn, faces his most hopeless hour as all the dark forces of the land close in on Eamhain Mhacha. He must pit himself against a multitude of foes - demonic fighters under the thrall of the ruthless Queen Medb, the dark spirit known as the Morrigan, even former blood-brothers who now side with the enemy. It is he alone who must stand against the tide. For his people, for his kingdom, for those he loves and for the SunGod Lugh, CúChulainn of the Red Branch must not break. And so, all of Eirú comes to him now with weapons drawn and violence in their hearts. Down to the ford, where CúChulainn waits... to deal with death one last time.
