Agus chuid mhaith dá gheasa briste aige cheana, téann [[Conaire Mór]] ar thaisteal i ndeisceart na tíre. Moltar dó fanacht ag Brú Dhá Dheirg, ach feiceann sé triúr gléasta in éadaí dearga, ag marcaíocht ar chapaill dhearga, ag teacht os a chomhair; tá geis eile briste aige dá bhárr.
''After [[Conaire Mór]] has already broken several of his taboos, he travels south along the coast of Ireland. He is advised to stay the night at Brú Dhá Dheirg, but as he approaches it, he sees three men dressed in red riding red horses arriving before him. He realises that three red men have preceded him into the house of a red man (Dá Dearg), and another of his geis has been broken.

''Conaire, protected by his champion [[Mac Cécht (warrior)|Mac Cécht]] and the Ulster hero [[Conall Cernach]], kills six hundred before he reaches his weapons, and a further six hundred with his weapons. He asks for a drink as he is cursed with a magical thirst, but all the water has been used to put out the fires. Mac Cécht travels across Ireland with Conaire's cup, but none of the rivers will give him water. He returns with a cup of water just in time to see two men cutting Conaire's head off. He kills both of them. Conaire's severed head drinks the water and recites a poem praising Mac Cécht. The battle rages for three more days. Mac Cécht is killed, but Conall Cernach escapes.<ref>[[Jeffrey Gantz]] (aistr.), ''Early Irish Myths and Sagas'', Penguin Classics, 1981, ll. 37–106</ref>
