Conan (Mac Lia) was the son of Lia (treasurer of Clan Morna).
On a number of occasions, Conan Mac Lia tried to avenge his father's death, but he was never successful in killing Finn Mac Cumhaill. When finally trapped by his father's killer, Conan offered his services and swore allegiance to Finn. Finn graciously accepted Conan's vows, and the two enemies became steadfast friends.
