Airmed
Irish goddess of healing and herbal knowledge.
Airmed, a goddess of the Tuatha Dé Danann in Irish mythology, was a healer alongside her father Dian Cecht and brother Miach. She helped restore King Nuada's hand and, after her brother's murder, gathered all healing herbs from his grave. Her father scattered them, so only she retains full herbal knowledge.
