Enda was a 15 year old boy who lived in northern Ireland at the start of the Celtic race. He was apparently disfigured as he had a shrivelled arm and a twitching mouth and he was born from his mother in the wrong position. He was passionately in love with Deirdre the Celtic Princess his age but his father and brother cruelly mocked him at the though of her but his uncle was kinder to him and said that Deirdre was a wretch he wander see her marry his goat or the family dog. However he tried to tell her one day while she was collecting water from the small stream near their village she almost fell in and he tried to save her but she yelled that he was trying to rape her before running back to the village. This broke his heart so much that he was driven to insanity and on Halloween night he grabbed a sharp knife and brutally killed Deirdre by stabbing her in the Breast and her fiancé's throat slit while they were dancing he was then killed by the enraged village shortly afterwards and his soul was cursed to wander the land until the end of time repeating the same event that night. Its unknown what happened to Enda's father, brother and uncle after his death but its possible they may have cursed Deirdre's soul to wander until the end of time repeating the same tragic heart break she caused him.
