"The most meaningful symbol?" That is a difficult question for Diarmuid. He doesn't usually put a lot of thought into symbols. The things that mean the most to him are not things that can really be summed up in a symbol: family, honor, loyalty, life...

Well...if he thinks about it that way...

"My people they use spirals and circles a lot when they are marking things. One in specific is known as a triple spiral because three is a holy number for us. We have several gods and goddesses that are known as triple deities. It can also represent the three parts of the great cycle--birth, life, and death. In some places it is used to signify the three parts of the world--sea, sky, and earth. It just encompasses so much and reminds us that we are all part of one whole no matter how distant we are from one and other. I suppose, if I had to pick a symbol, that would be it."
