  IIRC it's only just Bith and Birren, Cessair's parents, that were "involved". Saga is just a big fat jumbled mess that made little sense.

  I wonder, is there any god in the celtic myth that has yet to be mentioned/appeared in Mabi?

  
  There's Brigit the triple goddess. It's unclear whether Brigit is one person, or three sisters all named Brigit. Brigit is the daughter of Dagda (who is mentioned in mabi in the Magic Cauldron artifact in Falias, in addition to the Dagda crystal feature that existed in some versions of mabi for a time). Dagda is the son of Elatha, who is ingame. Brigit had three children, Goibne, Credne, and Luchta. Goibne and Credne are mentioned in mabi a few times. Goibne in myth was known for owning the great cow Glas Gaibhnenn. Goibne, Credne, and Dian Cecht collaborated to make Nuadha a new arm out of silver after he lost his original arm. Both Goibne and Credne were smiths, Luchta was a carpenter.
  
  Also notable is that Brigit acquired the king of the boars, Torc Triath, who is an evil(?) character from the arthurian legends. Thus far it seems C6 is very loosely based on arthurian legend.

  Keep in mind, Mabinogi is only based on the celtic legends via name only. Most of the time they take names from celtic mythology and then write up their own unique story for them.
  
  If you wanted a game that follows Celtic Mythology a lot more closely, this isn't it.

  Long as they drop the names im fine with them making their own stories with them XD least it can get us interested in the mythology itself just by hearing of the names and going through the generations i see alot of people get into Celtic mythology just from mabi which i think is pretty awesome by itself.

  Oooh cool. I'm assuming they're part of the second knight group that will be important for G20.

  Those supposedly came from Mabi KR's facebook but I don't see those posted on there. (Als the white haired guy seems to have romeo hair and the red haired guy seems to have tybalt hair.)

  Not sure what you mean by second knight group. If you mean another branch of alban knights, we've already seen two of them in G19. Aveline and Altam of Arthuan and Talvash of Elved.
  
  Their armor kind of looks like Odran's bevlasti guard uniform.

  Yeah, group... Also known as the branch, you get the point. But yes, they reused some of the older stuffs for those three NPCs, the girl is using one of the 2ne1 hairstyles as well.

  Considering a few roleplayers on Ruairi have been playing with the concept that Tory Ravine houses a "gateway" to another world, I would not be surprised.
  
  I'm still in hopes Tory Ravine reveals more lore on the Fomorians, considering its hinted at being the "Fomorian District" by the NPCs in Belvast.

  Plenty. We haven't seen most of the Tuatha de Danann
  
  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuatha_D%C3%A9_Danann#Tuatha_D.C3.A9_Danann_family_tree
  
  And that list doesn't even include Aenghus Óg, Fldias or Fand.
  
  Nor has Mabinogi actually hit upon the actual Welsh mythology of the Mabinogion that it's actually named for, which could be where this is heading.
  
  Odds are, like KoR pointed out, they're just pulling stuff out of their asses though, since they've mangled anything approaching actual mythology with only barest bits of facts and events being similar.

  Why no Fragarach? Stick the mythology it's already abusing before going all Christian.
  Although the Dresden fan in me would be amused.

  Cmon kr nexon! Give us something good in g20 moar content build upon royal raids im waiting!
• Kapra wrote on 2015-08-16 08:29
  To be honest, I don't think I want them to release Tory Ravine if the storyline associated with the place doesn't involve Balor, and I don't think this new god is Balor because this new god entered Erinn after Ruairi broke something in Saga 2, and Tory Ravine got closed off because of supernatural shit before that timeline wise. Plus ingame books do reference Balor as if he existed in the past but doesn't anymore but who knows, they could find an excuse to bring him back like they did with Nuadha. (If you don't know Tory Ravine's relevance to Balor, google Tory Island.)
