I was used for weddings, and newlyweds used to drink wine from me. They would then have many children. They would live in affluence and be blessed with good health. I protected the family from evil spirits and enemies, and I ensured a plentiful harvest.
My body is that of an eagle, my head that of a bull, my stag antlers encircle a pomegranate and I hold the Earth with my feet. Let me tell you my story:
One day, King Hungor had the strangest dream. A great danger loomed over his people and the only way that he could protect them was if he possessed the strength of a bull, the agility of a stag and the eyesight of an eagle. He immediately had his men capture the strongest bull, the fastest stag and the keenest-sighted eagle, and had them locked up in his court. After a while, the bull grew weaker, the stag grew slower and the eagle went blind.
His kingdom fell victim to one catastrophe after another: the crops were ruined by floods, people's homes destroyed by the wind and the nation disaster-stricken. He did not understand what was happening and was greatly saddened.
