Kale has no idea who Patrick is, but he can give her a history of about that time period, because he does at least know who Conn of the Hundred Battles and can move up from there. A lot of it is fairly similar except that there's quite few mentions of the McCallums helping in fending off invaders much better than in her world or removing a bad king from the throne. The gods are much more prominent. And once or twice a man named Rhys who seems to act almost like a trickster figure. When it comes to Grainne's own story, the McCallums are absent because it had naught to do with the land.
Generally, if she's looking for reasons why someone wouldn't be invading Eire it's because the McCallums were there to help send them packing back home, occasionally with their leaders in pieces, and because invasions are always harder when you're on a land not belonging to your gods. And the locals have some easily pissed off gods sanctioned guardians.
"I'm probably missing a lot," He admits, "I've never been too interested in history."
