Deceived by the splendid sight of Midac`s palace that was surrounded by magical rowan trees, #FinnMacCool entered and made himself comfortable in the grand banquet hall. Midac came in, stared at them, and departed without a word. It was then that Fionn and his warriors realized that a trap had been set. They had been deceived by a glamour and were really being held hostage in a crude shack. One after another of the #Fianna warriors came to their rescue, with Diarmait finally lopping off Midac’s head.

#Celtic #Mythology: While frying the `Salmon of Wisdom` #FinnmacCool burnt his thumb. When he instinctively put it in his mouth, enlightenment struck him like a bolt of lightning. Since then, he only had to put his thumb on his wisdom tooth to know everything he wanted to know.
