It made me interested in Celtic myths, its culture/history and lingustics, and ultimately in general Indo-european studies.
I find myself currently griefing a bit about how forgotten it's been outside the Arthurian branch. LB6 gave a piece of Celtic elements as well with faeries in general, figures like Baobhan Sith, Cernunnos, Habetrot, but there's so much more they can bring with the Irish, Welsh and even the historical material. I wonder when the next new Irish character who's a non-pseudo, non-Cu variant will release. And before that I bet there will be at least 3 or 4 perfectly new Indian characters at this rate.
Well, I was going to say that Ceasenunnos' design in this summer event was quite striking in how it's evocative of Balor of the Evil eye, the scourge of the Tuatha De Danann. That this one eyed calamity was born out of the Irish inspired Cnoc na Riabh seems quite deliberate to evoke Balor in some way.
In Fate, Balor has a special place in its lore. His eye, capable of smiting armies by its simple gaze, is considered a rainbow level type of mystic code (the highest level), similar to Mystic Eyes of Death Perception and Crimson Moon's (Type Moon) eyes. Both the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception and the eyes of Anastasia's fairy familiar, Viy, capable of distorting principles of causality, are actually descended from Balor's eye.
At this point I just hope part 3 will bring a scenario with older Celtic mythos and a more significant presence in the saga. It's one of the existing mythological scenarios that hasn't been as explored and presented with individual chapters dedicated to it. Part 3 needs to introduce the Tuatha de Danann, the Fomorians, and other Irish and Welsh characters to add more novel elements to their scenarios, and develop on a number of pre-established characters, mysteries and concepts, such as Balor's mystic eye, Lugh and his relation with Odin, or the Morrígan's triple nature potentially connecting with Morgan.
