Setanta has an idea concerning his uncle Conchobar (p.018)

which, in itself, is not that stupid

Setanta is not exactly curious about everything. But he sure is curious about SOME things. Including : the Hero's Salmon Leap, the Youth of Emain Macha, the Red Branch knights,... quite anything that has to do with fighting, one might say. Ah.... Iron Age kids... And his mother Dechtire, for her own part, never denies herself the pleasure of a little monologue.
