Sadly this one has a stuff up and the best part of the battle is missed.

A Chronicle of the Year of the Boar,

Four-hundred and Ninety-Nine

In which five knights ride into a village of swine, and most of them ride out again

Session Summary

  • The party, riding on Countess Ellen's commission toward Lambor, found the village of Alchester overrun by a vast herd of fairy boars
  • Without pausing for anything as sensible as a plan, all five charged directly into the herd
  • Emma and Aur broke through the press; Drusilla, Euric and Arianrhod had a considerably rougher passage
  • Drusilla executed what Geoffrey is generously calling a tactical withdrawal, drawing boars away from the main fight while taking fourteen points of damage to her horse
  • The Mayor of Alchester — a fairy boar of exceptional size and poor temperament — was brought down by Emma and Aur in the final round
  • With the Mayor's death, the enchantment broke: the surrounding boars transformed back into the villagers of Alchester, blinking and shivering in the mud
  • Sir Euric collected the fairy boar's blood before it dissolved into the forest; he has a plan, and Geoffrey is not asking about it
  • The party rested four weeks in Alchester, then rode to a nearby monastery to convalesce before the winter court at Salisbury

Dramatis Personae

  • Sir Euric of Aquitaine, the Ardent
  • Sir Aur of Lambor, the Stung
  • Lady Arianrhod, of the Old Faith, the Sharp-Eyed
  • Lady Drusilla of Figsbury, the Devout
  • Lady Emma of Caerwent, the Far-Sighted

Also named in counsel and rumour: Countess Ellen of Sarum, whose commission drives them still; Arimathea, warhorse of extraordinary loyalty and very poor obedience; and the unnamed dead of Alchester, freed at last from their long, bristled shame. And newly met: the Mayor of Alchester, fairy boar of prodigious size; and the villagers of Alchester, who were swine before they were people again.
