Subsequently, Rohan gains a new partner in Pyre the dragon, who later identifies Rohan as Draganta. Thereafter the four overcome Mider's "Evil Sentinels" (recurring villains in the series) to capture corresponding suits of armor, and oppose the various monsters created by Maeve, assisted by the winged fairy "Aideen". The heroes having passed these tests, King Fin Varra gives them certain weapons granting control of the Classical elements Fire, Air, Water and Earth. Later joined by the foreign Prince Ivar, and Conchobar's daughter, princess Deirdre, they are drawn into Tír Na nÓg, whose king Fin Varra puts the group through various tests to determine their worthiness. When king Conchobar of Kells seeks a way to protect his kingdom, protagonist Rohan, a druid's apprentice, goes in search of the prophesied hero "Draganta", with his friend the reformed thief Angus. Queen Maeve mostly uses the Rune Stone to create or summon monsters whom she sends to wreak havoc. On an unnamed island, queen Maeve of Temra seeks to conquer the peaceful kingdom of Kells and enlists the evil fairy Mider, who gives her the mystical Rune Stone allowing Maeve to use sorcery.

The resulting series was an attempt in doing an original non- Japanese special-effects series rather than adapting from actual Japanese tokusatsu. A second season entitled Mystic Knights: Battle Thunder was planned, but was later cancelled, and its budget was put towards Power Rangers Lost Galaxy and the English dub version of Digimon: Digital Monsters. It aired on the Fox Kids Network from Septemand ending on May 7, 1999. It was Saban's first fantasy series to involve knights, dragons, and wizards. The name is derived from Tír na nÓg, one of the Otherworlds of Irish mythology.

It was loosely based on actual Irish mythology. Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog is a fantasy-adventure television series set in a fantasy version of ancient Ireland, created by Saban Entertainment.
