lofgeornost

most eager for honour
adventuring in a world where magic is magical, and monsters are monstrous

Now the king's thane
who kept in his memory
recalling at will
legends and lays
who was laden with speeches
and knew virtually all
of the venerable sagas
found instead another
story to tell.
- Beowulf

to be played February 6th - May 1st, 2007

DETAILED DESCRIPTION Years ago Cyning Berchtwald rose from being a mere fishmonger to Cyning of all Eron (Tiwesdæg Clíewen). After putting down the last rebellious Eorl, and subduing the savages of the mountain clans (Tiwesdæg Clíewen 2), now he would have his lands know more of the world, and trade with them. He would also have his bastard son find some place of honour, but he must needs earn it by his deeds. And so he sends forth a party to the mainland, to explore and send back reports, and seeks those who are lofgeornost, most eager for glory, as was Beowulf.
