Levenish was a nuisance in the Ancient Glasgow area, forever rubbing people up the wrong way and getting drunk and shouting and knocking down fences to let animals go. The chaos of early mornings was bad enough to bare. It became even worse when the young and impressionable started to gather round and join in. Before long the gang were taking all they wanted and terrorising villages along the River Clyde.
One night the rogues discovered the hut of a trusting wizard and Levenish, trying to prove what a man he was, consumed a draught labelled Strength. Soon he was a stone giant, all the better to bully the populace.
On returning to his hut from a gathering expedition in the Highlands, Kilda was shocked to discover what had resulted from his carelessness and, after a quick discussion with his Helfenschwein, Soay, realised what must be done, no matter the consequences for themselves. And so they brewed more of the stolen potion, each downed a portion and went searching for Levenish.
Together the pair overcame the brute and dragged Levenish up the Clyde and out to sea as deep and as far as they could manage. Some distance beyond Barra, Kilda and Soay became exhausted and collapsed where they stood becoming new islands rooted in the ocean, binding Levenish also as they became one with Mother Earth. Levenish, enraged at what had happened blew forth red hot lava from his head until he himself grew tired and fell fast asleep.
