Dee asked Juliet Marillier:

Hi Juliet! I know this mighty sound stupid but in your book The Adar Mirror, were the Gaels the Scottish or Irish ones? Thank you :)

Juliet Marillier Hi Dee. You mean The Dark Mirror? It's set in the mid 6th century at the time when Irish Gaels moved into / invaded what is now the west coast of Scotland - then part of the Pictish kingdom. So the Gaels in the story are the Irish ones who later became Scottish ones, if that makes sense! Most of the action of the story takes place in the kingdom of the Picts, though in the third book of the series, The Well of Shades, part of the action is in Ireland.
