@TonicOrange That's cool! I find a lot of things just by falling down a rabbit hole too XD
How I discovered selkies was a movie that I had watched years ago, it's called "Song of the Sea" It's an absolutely beautiful film both visually and story wise. If you like selkies as much as I do you'll love it [you can watch it on Netflix btw if your interested]
Also yeah I couldn't agree with you more, Irish folklore is so intriguing and wondrous, it really knows how to draw people in.

Oh my dog selkie rep!! They are one of my top favorite mythical creatures but barely anyone knows what they are! You are a man of fine taste my fellow selkie enjoyer :3
[Get well soon]

tbh I only stumbled across selkies because i loved seals and was curious if there were any seal monster girls out there. It lead me down a Irish lore rabbit hole and they ended up being one of my favorites. Oddly not the first time ive found myself drawn to Irish folklore, they have some truly wondrous things to learn about. I find that in fantasy I'm quite drawn to Irish inspired settings. Tho i wish they would feature selkies LOL
