mizwatson, who writes stories about monsters in love. Because of her, I'm writing about monsters who're...well...'in love' is not the phrase. Similar actions may be involved, though. Each Uisge is a flesh-eating fae beast that appears as a handsome man or a gorgeous horse and drowns and eats humans for fun. He hails from Scotland. Kelpies are similar Irish beasties, though they may do it more out of mischief than active malice. The Morrighan is an Irish goddess of sorts. She is Not A Nice Person At All.
Summary: Each uisge got the kelpie drunk on something very nasty while the latter was visiting from Ireland.
