Thus, both characters play a significant role in the disturbances they create.
Oberon wants Titania to fall in love with some vile thing so she will have no afection for the boy stolen from the Indian King anymore. This way, he can take the boy as a servant and won't have Titania in the way. Later Oberon plans to cure the love spell from the Queen using a herb.

in A Midsummer Night's Dream, Titania and Oberon are fighting over an Indian 'changeling' child who is not named. the child's mother was "a votaress" (religious worshiper or follower) of Titania, and they were friends. the child's mother died in childbirth, and for her sake, Titania is raising the boy. (Oberon, the Fairy King, is trying to take the boy away from Titania, and this creates much of the conflict between Titania and Oberon) I once played Titania in a college production of Midsummer it's a fantastic play!

Changeling. Changeling.
