In the aftermath of a murder bomber attack, Pheidas heard screaming and saw a wounded Moabite woman bleeding severely. He ran up to give aid and flipped up her skirt to examine the wound. A young Moabite man nearby demanded to know what he was doing to the woman implying Pheidas was about to rape her. Pheidas replied he was going to try to fix her leg but if the man wanted to try, he was welcome to do so. The Moabite declined, told Pheidas to proceed and warned him to not to do anything dirty to her.
