Amid the rustling banners bold
A tale is told of Korigan
Who fears no one, the wolf red-black,
Who from her pack will never stray.
For Helen Grey she stood the field
With sword and shield, and heavy axe,
To make me wax on honour bought
With how she fought for Helen Grey.
On August 29, 2015, at
the Emprise of the Ermine Star, I fought Lord Korigan in a deed of arms. Part
of the rules of the list were that if any part of a fighter other than their
foot were to touch the ground, they owed a ransom to their opponent. I fell to
the ground, and for my ransom Korigan tasked me to write a poem for her wife,
Helen Grey.
Written using the
aicill rhyme scheme where the final word of one line rhymes with an internal
word in the next rhyme.
