An Irish tragedy: The fall of Ferdiad at the hands of Cú Chulainn. Two great warriors, foster brothers, who trained together under the tutelage of the legendary warrior Scáthach.
In Scottish Gaelic, it's said that: Is caomh le fear a charaid, ach 's e smior a chridhe a cho-dhalt. ~ Dear is a kinsman, but the pith of the heart is a foster-brother.
