Editing Fráech (section)

===The Death of Fráech ===
"The Death of Fráech" is a poem from ''The [[Book of the Dean of Lismore]]'' in which Fráech, who is described as the bravest, friendliest, and best of knights, is sent by [[Medb]] to retrieve the berries from a rowan tree on an island in Loch Medb. The berries from the rowan tree could cure disease and prolong life for a year, but the tree itself was guarded by a dragon or monster that dwelt in the loch among its roots. Fráech first went to the island and found the dragon asleep and was able to retrieve its berries unperceived. However [[Medb]] was not satisfied with the berries and requested that Fráech retrieve a branch from the tree. Fráech returned to the island and attempted to uproot the tree, but this act disturbed the dragon. The dragon bites Fráech in the side and tears off his arm, but [[Findabair]] provides a sword, which Fráech uses to behead the monster. Fráech finally comes ashore but dies of his wounds in Findabair's lap.<ref>{{cite web |title=The Celtic Dragon Myth: J F Campbell |url=https://sacred-texts.com/neu/celt/cdm/cdm04.htm |website=Sacred Texts |access-date=1 December 2019}}</ref>
