Furbaide Ferbend




In later life he avenged his mother's death. Medb had taken to bathing in a pool on an island. Furbaide measured the distance from the pool to the shore with a rope, and practiced with his sling until he could hit an apple on to off a stake from that distance. The next time he saw Medb bathing, he shot the nearest missile to hand - a piece of cheese - at her, and killed her.
