Oscur and Diarmuid were in the worst plight; and the life would have gone from them altogether had not Dorm mac Midir travelled far to find Fingin, the ancient faery physician of Slieve Fuad, who had more knowledge of healing herbs than all other doctors in Ireland.
When the Fians had fully recovered from their wounds Fionn called a council of the sons of Midir and the Tuatha de Danann, and they agreed there should be peace for evermore between them. Afterwards Fionn and his men returned to their home on the Hill of Allen, and found the Fianna mourning them as dead; for though it seemed to Fionn and his comrades that they had been absent only a few days, to their amazement the Fianna said their absence had lasted for nearly a year and a half. And among all the Fianna that night there was feasting and joy, because their great hero and chief had returned to them.
