Tuatha na Beatha (Too-ah-ha na BAH-ha)
Tribe of Life
In the ever-flourishing realm of Tír na nÓg, the Tuatha na Beatha are the silent keepers of balance, ensuring that the relationship between the land and its inhabitants remains one of harmony, renewal, and respect. They are the cultivators, healers, and caretakers, tending to the natural rhythms of existence. Though no sickness plagues this realm, the study of vitality and the preservation of life remain sacred duties. To them, the land is not merely a resource—it is a living entity, a partner in creation, deserving of reverence and care.
From the fertile fields and rolling meadows to the deep forests and untamed seas, their influence touches all corners of the realm. Feirmeoir nurture the bounty of the land, Liaigh safeguard the wisdom of plants and their hidden properties, and Loingseoir navigate the endless waters, forging bonds between distant shores. Even the Tíoránach, who tend hearth and home, understand that true care extends beyond the physical, reaching into the heart of community and belonging.
More than simple laborers, the Tuatha na Beatha are guardians of continuity, ensuring that the cycle of life, even in a realm untouched by death, remains unbroken. They do not create for the sake of artistry, nor do they seek knowledge for knowledge’s sake; their purpose is to sustain, preserve, and nourish. Through their hands, the land flourishes, traditions endure, and Tír na nÓg thrives.
To be one of the Tuatha na Beatha is to understand that life, in all its forms, is interconnected. A single seed holds within it the promise of a forest. A well-kept hearth is as important as a well-kept field. Whether cultivating food, caring for animals, or simply ensuring that no soul wanders lost or untended, their purpose is clear: Life is not meant to be hoarded but shared.
