So it was that they married that night, eager to start their life together.
The enemy was not defeated yet, but it was only a matter of time. They were drawing closer to an ultimate destruction that the MacLeod’s were determined to be at the center of. So said a Scot’s resolve when faced with losing everything that mattered most.
Scotland would be saved as would their magic.
After all, as they had proven time and time again, there was nothing they would not do for king and country.
More than that, there was nothing they would not do for family.

WHILE THE FIRST MENTION of the site was in 1907 and no pre-Columbian artifacts have been found, some still believe that the site is over 4000 years old. On the equinoxes and solstices, people flock to the area to watch the sun rise and fall over the huge chunks of granite, deciding for themselves whether or not they're standing amid relics of prehistory.

Stone of Scone (Stone of Destiny)
ACCORDING TO ONE CELTIC legend, the stone was once the pillow upon which the patriarch Jacob rested at Bethel when he beheld the visions of angels. From the Holy Land, it purportedly traveled to Egypt, Sicily, and Spain and reached Ireland about 700 BC to be set upon the hill of Tara, where the ancient kings of Ireland were crowned. Then it was taken by the Celtic Scots who invaded and occupied the land that became known as Scotland, having been named after the invaders. Around 840 AC, it was taken by Kenneth MacAlpin to the village of Scone.
Bull Rock
