After killing Macbeth at Lumphanan in 1057, Malcolm Canmore still had to deal with Macbeth's stepson Lulach — nicknamed 'the Simple' or 'the Fool', though likely an ironic epithet for someone considered profound. Lulach had been crowned king at Scone and ruled briefly. Malcolm had him killed at Essie in Strathbogie — the Chronicle says 'by treachery.' His death ended the Moray dynasty's claim to the Scottish kingship for another generation, though Moray would rebel repeatedly thereafter.
