Editing Dian Cecht (section)

==Dian Cecht’s Envy==
Dian Cecht made King [[Nuada]] a silver arm which could move and function as a normal arm. Later his son, [[Miach]], replaced the silver arm with an arm of flesh and blood, and Dian Cecht killed him out of professional envy.

Miach's sister, [[Airmed]], mourned over her brother's grave. As her tears fell, all the healing herbs of the world grew from the grave. Airmed arranged and catalogued the herbs, but then Dian Cécht again reacted with anger and jealousy and scattered the herbs, destroying his daughter's work as well as his son's. For this reason, it is said that no human now knows the healing properties of all the herbs.<ref name=CMT033>''Cath Maige Tuired'' §33–35, {{harvp|Stokes|1891|pp=66–69}}; {{harvp|Gray|1982|pp=32, 33}}</ref>
