Thirsty? Well you are in luck as this episode deals with the Grail Knights! We start by exploring the roles the Grail Knights have in Bretonnian culture and the Virtues they can manifest, each based on one of the 14 madlads who unified the country. Amalric of Gaudaron is our first example of what it means to be a Grail Knight, Renowned as the Bane of the Undead. We delve into the deeds of Bohemond Beastslayer, an amazing knight and terrible judge of character. The Hermit of Malmont, slayer of dragons with monotonous regularly is up next, out of his mind on dragon-wine.

We start with a mysterious mystery of the Herrimaults (Eh-ree-Mau) which Cral gets straight away and Dar loses his temper. We explore what it takes to become a Hairy-Mole and what their day to day life is like, their relations with other peasants and their local nobility their Leaders are desperate to hold to account. We turn to the tale of perhaps the most famous of their number, Bertrand the Brigand of Bergerac, and how he is not a total rip off of Robin Hood. We close out the episode by looking at the other extreme of the peasant/noble interaction. The Fanatics that are the raucous murderous Grail Pilgrims, Serf’s who worship Grail Knights to the point that they may kill them and wear their trappings and bones to bring the favour of the Lady.

We start this episode, eventually, with the return of the Skaven and the devastation the Red Pox has on the peasants and nobles alike. We turn our attention to the Affair of the False Grail and what exactly can go wrong when you claim to be a king, The Siege of Couronne sees the first strong alliance between the Bretonnians and the Elves of Ulthuan. The Dark elves take umbrage at this, attacking first at the command of the Witch King and a second time, The Crusade of Blood, when the witch Elves cut through Bretonnia and their way south. We close out the episode with a look at The Year of Woe where The forces of Tzeentch try their best to claim the treasures of Gille and the Grail Companions from the very founding of the country.
