At her birth, it was prophesized that shew would grow up to the most beautiful woman in all of Ireland, but that her great beauty would bring sorrow to Ulster. Conchobar mac Nessa, the King of Ulster, decided that the child Deirdre should be raised in seclusion, deep in the forest, by an old woman, and that when old enough, he would marry Deirdre. And indeed, Deirdre grew up, more beautiful every day, with no one else around. But on day, before the wedding could occur, she met the Sons of Usnech, three handsome warriors. She immediately fell deeply in love with the proudest and bravest of them all, Naisi. So, they eloped and wandered throughout Ireland, pursued by Conchobar.
