Conchobar
In
Goidelic mythology, King
Conchobar of
Ulster planned on marrying his step-daughter, the beautiful
Deirdre. She fell in love with his nephew,
Noise; they fled to
Scotland with his two brothers (sons of
Usnech). Conchobar's messengers asked Noise and his brothers to return to
Ireland. They did and he killed them; one of his courtesans,
Fergus mac Roich, left his court in protest. Deirdre died of grief.
