Personal history
When the Tuatha Dé Danann left for Ireland, Nuada brought the Lia Fáil with them. When the rightful High King of Ireland put his feet on the stone it roared in joy, thus it was used to coronate the various kings of Ireland. Nuada himself was coronated at this stone.
Nuada was king of the Tuatha Dé Danann for seven years before they came to Ireland. They made contact with the Fir Bolg, the then-inhabitants of the island, & Nuada sought from them half of the island for the Tuatha Dé, which their king rejected. Both peoples made ready for war, & in an act of chivalry allowed their numbers & arms to be inspected by the opposing side to allow for a truly fair battle. During this first great battle at Mag Tuired, Nuada lost his left arm in combat with the Fir Bolg champion Sreng. Nuada's ally, Aengaba of Norway, then fought Sreng, sustaining a mortal wound, while the Dagda protected Nuada. Fifty of the Dagda's soldiers carried Nuada from the field. The Tuatha Dé gained the upper hand in the battle, but Sreng later returned to challenge Nuada to single combat. Nuada accepted, on the condition that Sreng fought with one arm tied up. Sreng refused, but by this point the battle was won & the Fir Bolg all but vanquished. The Tuatha Dé then decided to offer Sreng one quarter of Ireland for his people instead of the one half offered before the battle, & he chose Connacht. Having lost his arm, Nuada was no longer eligible for kingship because of the Tuatha Dé tradition that their king must be physically perfect, & he was replaced as king by Bres, a half-Fomorian prince renowned for his beauty & intellect. The Fomorians were mythological enemies of the people of Ireland, & during Bres's reign they imposed great tribute on the Tuatha Dé, who became disgruntled with their new king's oppressive rule & lack of hospitality. By this time Nuada had his lost arm replaced by a working silver one by the physician Dian Cecht & the wright Creidhne. Bres was removed from the kingship, having ruled for seven years, & Nuada was restored. He ruled for twenty more years. Bres, aided by the Fomorian Balor of the Evil Eye, attempted to retake the kingship by force, war & continued oppression followed. When the youthful & vigorous Lugh joined Nuada's court, the king realised the multi-talented youth could lead the Tuatha Dé against the Fomorians, & stood down in his favour. The second Battle of Mag Tuired followed. Nuada was killed & beheaded in battle by Balor, but Lugh avenged him by killing Balor & led the Tuatha Dé to victory.
