Once again they were acting under the instructions of their Druid, who had advised them to threaten him, so that if he killed them, a kin slaying / finghal might also then be on him, but once again he forgave them and made them his Champions / Collas.

Seeing the numbers of the 3 Colla Septs growing stronger *88.Murray Tireach, their cousin, who was now the Gaelic Milesian Heremonian Dal Cuinn 122nd King of Tara / Ireland advised them to go further north and seek out territory there for their own Dal Cuinn 3 Colla Families, against their long time Gaelic Milesian Irian enemies in the Ulster Province. *85.Fergus Dubh Deadach - of the Black Tooth, was also the previous Gaelic Milesian Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh King of Ulster who had previously become the Gaelic Milesian 114th King of Ireland who had come between their ancestor *85.Cormac mac Airt who was to become the Gaelic Milesian 115th King of Tara / Ireland and the overall Kingship of Ireland. (He had also singed *85.Cormac' mac Airts beard with a candle, which had been taken as an affront to his dignity.) The 3 Collas were to be involved in 7 battles in one week killing Fergus Fogha, the son of Fraechar Foirtriun, who was to be the last King of Ulster, who resided at Eamhain Macha (Armagh), which they also burnt, which then saw its end as a Royal fortress. They were to secure all of the territory there from the Righe and Loch nEathach westwards, founding what was to become the Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Ui Felim Dal Cuinn 3 Colla kingdom of Airghialla / Orghialla / Oriel in Southern Ulster and adjoining territory in Co. Louth in the north - east of Northern Leinster. During the conflicts that brought this all about, in the Battle of Archadh Leithdheirg in Fearnmhagh 88.Meann Colla Mend - the Famous was killed.

'who had been the brother of *37.Eremon (Heremonians) and *37.Eber Fionn (Heberians).

Meath in the south - east of Northern Leinster, which was part of the territory that was the Midlands / Midhe / Meath Province, and he had 5 sons of which 4 were to be sons of 89.Mongfind / Mon / Mong Fionn, the daughter of 88.Lare Fidach the previous Gaelic Milesian Heberian King of Munster, who was a sister to *89.Criffan / Crimthann who was the present Eoghanacht King of Munster who would also soon become the future Gaelic Milesian Heberian 125th King of Tara / Ireland. Of 89.Mongfind's 4 sons;
90.Brion, which see, *89.Eochy Mugmedon's oldest son was to become the original first Dal Cuinn King of Connacht and the direct male line ancestor of all of the future 4 Ui Briuin Septs in the Connacht Province, including the Ui Briuin Breifne, the Ui Briuin Seola, the Ui Briuin Sinna, and the Ui Briuin Ai who were to produce the O Connor Kings of Connacht and Ireland from the Sil Murray / Siol Muireadhaigh Ui Conchobair Sept culminating in 114.Turlogh Mor O Connor the Gaelic Milesian 181st King of Ireland and 115.Rory O Connor who would become the Gaelic Milesian 183rd and last King of Ireland after the Anglo - Norman English Invasion in the late 12th Century AD. The main Ui Briuin Families would include the O Bradys, the O Connors, the Mac Dermots, the Mac Donoghs, the O Flahertys, the O Malleys, the O Reillys, the O Rourkes and the Mac Tiernans, etc.
90.Fiachra Foltsnathac - of the Flowing Hair, which see, his next son, was to also be the original second Dal Cuinn King of Connacht and produce Kings of Connacht and Tara / Ireland also early on, and become the direct male line ancestor of the Ui Fiachrach Septs, both "northern" in Tir Fiachra / Tireagh in Co. Sligo and parts of Co. Mayo, and the "southern" in their territory of Aidni. The Ui Fiachrach Muaide were to be in the north of the Connacht Province, and the Ui Fiachrach Aidni in the south of Connacht, and among their Family Septs were to be the O Clerys / O Clearys, the O Dowds, the O Feeneys, the O Gilfillans, the O Hines / O Heynes, the O Hevicans / O Havigans / O Hevaghans, the O Hernons, the O Keevans / O Kevanes, the O Mulroys, O Mulrys, O Milroys and the O Shaughnessys etc.
90.Ailill / Oilill was to become the direct male line ancestor of the Ui Aiello Septs also in Co. Sligo in Tir Ailill / Tirerill in the Connacht Province, and between them the Septs of these 3 brothers, who left aristocraic warrior issue, became known as the 3 Connachta in the Connacht (The Land of *83.Conn) Province. The other brother, 90.Fergus left no recorded issue at all.
366 AD Due to their mother, 89.Mongfind's strong influence, her brother, *89.Criffan / Crimthann was to be invested as the Gaelic Milesian Heberian 125th King of Tara / Ireland, as the first from the Heberian male line for many Centuries, as her oldest son, 90.Brion was too young at the time of his father's death, and to ensure his future chances she had put her brother forward until he was to become of age. Despite this their father, *89.Eochy Mugmedon the Gaelic Milesian 124th King of Tara / Ireland had previously decreed that he wanted his fifth son *90.Niall Mor, who was not one of 89.Mongfind's sons, but the son of Carthan / Carina Cais Dubh, the daughter of Scal Moen a Saxon King in Albion / Briton, to be the future King of Tara / Ireland, due to his outstanding abilities, and 89.Mongfind was not pleased. *89.Criffan had also taken *90.Niall Mor under his protective wing and ensured that this was to be the way of it, and that it would happen as his father, *89.Eochy Mugmedon had decreed.
378 AD. 89.Mongfind finally panicked and poisoned her own brother, *89.Criffan the Gaelic Milesian Heberian 125th King of Tara / Ireland hoping to install her first born son *90.Brion to the throne of Tara / Ireland, and she also then personally poisoned herself by drinking from the same cup, but her son was passed over anyway as this was a severe finghal (kin slaying) that was frowned on under the Irish Brehon Law. *89.Criffan died on the way back to the Munster Province at Sliab Aideda an Rig (The Mountain of the King's Death) at Cratloe north of Limerick in Co. Limerick in the mid - north west of Munster. This particular finghal was to also create problems for her other sons, 90.Fiachra - of the Flowing Hair and 90.Ailill who were to eventually have their territories in the Connacht Province also. The Heberian Dal gCais Septs in the north of the Munster Province who were also descended from 84.Ailill Oluimm the 1st King of Munster through 83.Cormac Cass the 2nd King of Munster, also claimed close kinship to *89.Criffan. Both of these 2 younger sons were to be eventually killed and the Heberian Dal gCais Septs were then to gain more of the southern region of Connacht Province that was previously under 90.Fiachra - of the Flowing Hair's control. Taking it also as "sword - land," they added it to the territory already in their possession in the south - west of Connacht along the western side of the River Shannon, and it is now also part of Co. Clare in Munster.
*90.Niall Naoighiallach - of the Nine Hostages was the youngest and fifth son of *89.Eochy Mugmedon the previous Gaelic Milesian 124th King of Tara / Ireland and Caireann Chaisdubh - of the Dark Curly Hair who was a Celtic Brythonic Princess and the daughter of Scal Moen the King of the Saxons in Albion / Briton. He would become known as *90.Niall - of the Nine Hostages when he became the Gaelic Milesian Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Ui Felim Dal Cuinn 126th King of Tara / Ireland who took Royal hostages from (9) Countries, which he was to submit and make pay tribute / borumha. This included the 4 Provinces in Ireland, Albion / Briton, the Cruthin Gaelic Picts in Alba / Scottish Highlands, the Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Ui Conaire in Dal Riada in the Ulster Province and Argyle (The Land of the Gael) in the Scottish Highlands, the Saxons, and the Celtic Morini in France. He was to go deep into Gaul to assist the Morini Celts to expel the Romans and subsequently conquered that territory there also near Calais towards Picardy. In the very early 5th Century in 405 AD he was to be killed for revenge on the banks of the River Lianne / Loire as he sat by the river side near Boulgne - sur - mer by 95.Eochy, one of the sons of 94.Enna Cennsalach / Kinsella the Heremonian Ui Laoghaire Ui Lughaidh Cu Corb 2nd King of Leinster, who he had previously exiled to Alba. (*90.Niall had previously decreed that Alba / Scottish Highlands was to be known henceforth as Scotia Minor.)
*90.Niall became the direct male line ancestor of the Heremonian "southern" and the "northern" Ui Niaill Septs from his own 8 sons, 5 of which were to be the direct male line ancestors of the "southern Ui Niaill - 91.Cairbre / Cairpre (Cenel Cairbre), 91.Conall Cremthainne (Cenel nArdgail / Clann Cholmain / Caol Follmain / Siol nAedo Slaine). 91.Fiachu (Cenel Fiachach). *91.Leary / Laoghaire the Gaelic Milesian 128th King of Tara / Ireland (Ui Laoghaire) and 91.Maine of Tethbae (Cenel Maine). The 3 others also became the direct male line ancestors of the "northern" Ui Niaill - 91.Eogan (Cenel nEogain), 91.Conall Gulban (Cenel Conaill) and 91.Enda (Ui Endae).
Of these 8 sons, the 5 sons from the "southern" Ui Niaill, 91.Cairbre / Coirpre, 91.Conall Cremthainne and *91.Laoghaire left Kings of Tara / Ireland. 91.Conall Cremthainne was at first to produce the Siol nAedo Slaine Kings of Tara / Ireland early on from his son, 92.Fergus Carroll / Cerball, but later it was to be their Clann Cholmain Kings of Ireland from his great - grandson, 94.Colman Mor who were to survive until the very end. Of the 3 sons from the "northern" Ui Niaill only 91.Conall Gulban and 91.Eogain were to leave Kings of Ireland with 91.Eogan's male line surviving until after the Anglo - Norman Invasion.
*90.Niall - of the Nine Hostages the Gaelic Milesian 126th King of Tara / Ireland initially was to make his older half - brother, 90.Brion (Ui Briuin) the first Dal Cuinn King of Connacht and his other half - brother, 90.Fiachra (Ui Fiachrach) originally the Chief of the territory from Carn Feradaig near Limerick in the mid - north - west of the Munster Province to Magh Mucronmhe near Athenry in Co. Galway in Southern Connacht. After 90.Brion's demise, 90.Fiachra became the second Dal Cuinn King of Connacht.
