Line 28:
* [[Heterosexual Life Partners]]: Cú Chulainn and Fer Diad.
* [[Historical Fantasy]]: Possibly. Though set in the pre-Christian Iron Age, it was first written down by Christians in the early Middle Ages. It's anyone's guess how much of it was actual oral history and how much was added by the people who committed it to manuscript.
**Well it is probable that people did steal cattle at that time.
* [[I Am X, Son of Y]]: Near the start of the story this line pops up: "the High King of Erin himself was my sire, Eocho Fedlech ('the Enduring') son of Finn, by name, who was son of Findoman, son of Finden, son of Findguin, son of Rogen Ruad ('the Red'), son of Rigen, son of Blathacht, son of Beothacht, son of Enna Agnech, son of Oengus Turbech."
* [[If It's You It's Okay]]: Cú Chulainn has numerous lady friends, but there's only one Fer Diad.
