Rather than being the story of a single ruthless queen, Medb represents the power of a siren in a king's guideline.
According to the tales of the Ulster Cycle, Medb was the little girl of among Ireland's high kings. Her second husband, Eochaid Dála, tested one of her enthusiasts, Ailill mac Máta, and also when Ailill eliminated him, she took him as her 3rd spouse.
