Two lovers, one is a monster, known for bringing down people to their deaths, puts a spell on a girl, falls in love with her, grants her wish to bring back the princes, and she marrys someone else. This truely is sad. The story of a monster in love with a mortal. Well I’m making a fanfic now

That is so true! There's another version of the story where the Kelpie is instead enslaved as a horse for a year by the girl he tried to seduce and steal away. After the year is up she takes him to a Wizard who removes the magical bridle she put on him. He asks the Kelpie if he wants to be freed and returned to sea, but the Kelpie says no, he has fallen in love with the girl and would rather be mortal and live with her, and she accepts. I like that one a little better, because it has a bit more of a happy ending :) And soften the Kelpie a little bit. I'm sad, sad, sap XD

I know right :( There's another Kelpie Legend where the Kelpie is turned into a horse by a farm girl after he essentially tried to rape her, she uses him in the farmlands for a whole years, making sure to take good care of him. After a year she begins to feel sorry for him and takes him to a local witch to help her break the curse she had put on him. The witch simply asks "Do you wish to be a man, or remain a beast?" and he answers, "A man, for I have fallen in love with my caretaker." He's turned into an ordinary man and they live happily ever after. Still weird, but no as messed up as the original one XD

@AbsurdandFantastical 3 жыл бұрын
Hey! There have been some similarities noted between the Kelpie and the bäckahäst from Scandinavia. However, to claim that the Kelpie comes wholly from Norse mythology is a bit of a stretch. Celtic tribes come from a wide variety of cultures even possibly from Israel, and the Kelpie was possibly concocted to keep children away from the marshy swamps that are so part of the Celtic landscape. The Nucklevee is another example of a creature possibly created from the Orkney stories and the Norse settlers. However, in the Orkney isles, they saw many a seafarer from Norway come by. So the stories were shared and so changed to fit in. In short, it could be from Norse myths, but I am personally inclined to believe otherwise :)

Nah, I don’t think so. I mean, both the Celts and Norse have been in the Far North for a very, very long time. I’d say both were created by their own people, but it wouldn’t surprise me that people are trying to claim the story came from one place solely. People have a tendency to do that and I hate it, its like the more people can claim the better their past was. Can’t we all just be happy with the fact that each people of the far past had things that made us all so interesting?

I love this story, even though I can find the Kelpie morally wrong in a few cases. The first, stealing the 6 Princes I can write off as it being his nature; but bewitching Dianaimh, it would have been better to hide what he was for a time and show her he had a good heart at least for her. Then she may have loved him in the end even after finding out who he was and what he did, he would have returned the 6 Princes because they truly loved each other. Though I wish he would have told Dianaimh about what he did to the Lady at the festival (forgive me but I can’t spell that name), that he decided to punish her for her wicked heart. In the future, he would only punish those with evil in their hearts, allowing all who were good to pass by with his blessing, possibly even helping them. If anything, the Kelpie caused the ending to himself. I actually want to use this tale as the backstory to a character in a fictional writing with some friends, that he did take the 6 Princes as he was a rebellious Dark Kelpie. But Dianaimh’s love made him regret his fall and he began to desire to atone for his wrongs. The story plays out as it does, but when Dianaimh marries Donald, the Kelpie’s heart is so broken that he atones to his family for all the wrong he had done in becoming a Dark Kelpie and desiring to win his throne by war. After he does this he falls into a long slumber of which he perishes upon Dianaimh’s death. Though many many years later he is reborn by the power of the sea and falls in love with another mortal woman. Though he is afraid to fully give his heart to her, for when he does, he will forget Dianaimh and all his past life to begin anew. Eventually his love for her becomes so unbearable that he lets go of who he was and does forget, gaining a new life, and the forces of Primal Magic make his love an immortal with him that they shall never part from each other.

Then you should definitely read Hero with a Thousand faces, although it takes the whole concept to a psychological interpretation, it's still really awesome to see all the different heroes and figures you can find all across mythology!

@@Amy_the_LizardSome outfits were fitted with dagger sheaths on a leather strap going from one shoulder to the opposite hip, maybe that’s how he got the dagger? From there, I don’t know, flexibility is all I can guess. 😂 Edit: I went back and listened to it again. It said “he could not remove his hand from the horse’s hide” so his other hand was free.
