Legend goes one day she got SO angry with the insolence of humans she went on a rampage, set out to kill all to the very last human for their impudence (and probably stupidity) until in the end the only thing to calm her down was the big boss Ra who kept feeding her a river of wine, telling her it was human blood until she finally fell asleep.
