About this 3D model
Niall of the Nine Hostages High King of Tara He did not inherit power. He seized it. Niall of the Nine Hostages stands before destiny, sword raised in triumph. The High King who bound Ireland through strength, tribute, and calculated dominance. Noble hostages from the five provinces and beyond secured his authority and forged his legend. Tradition says the Lia Fáil, the Stone of Destiny at Tara, would cry out for the rightful king. In this moment, it has spoken.
