It takes place in the province of Munster , County Waterford, between the troops of the Fitzgeralds ( Earl of Desmond ) and the Butlers ( Earl of Ormonde ). The battle ends with the defeat of Desmond's troops. In particular, the fact that both sides display their private banners during the battle is an affront to the English crown. Thereupon Elizabeth I ordered the leaders of both lordships to London. While Thomas Butler (3rd Earl of Ormonde) is pardoned as a relative of the Queen, Gerald Fitzgerald and his brothers John and James are arrested and locked up in the Tower of London . The power vacuum that followed in Munster finally led to the first Desmond rebellion in 1569 .
