Sir Jamal Damien Marcus
Fall Crown Tourney A.S. XLIII
A Madih Khazanieh (Qasidah)
Sir Jamal strode across the fields of war
To make Eowyn queen forever more
And strike down rivals never heretofore
Undone. Such beatings had Jamal planned for!
Jamal is chivalry unto his core!
His first foe, dread Sir Patrick, blocked his way.
They circled and attacked; each tried to sway
The other from the victory that day.
Jamal felled Patrick via grand display.
Jamal is chivalry unto his core!
Next came Sir Mansur from the kindred East.
Who threw a shot Jamal expected least,
The sinister shot left his armor creased.
Jamal was defeated but not deceased.
Jamal is chivalry unto his core!
He rose to face the cunning Somerset,
Sir Gareth roundly known a triple threat
Jamal wished Crown upon his brow to set
And striking Gareth down, his ending met!
Jamal is chivalry unto his core!
Lord Shawn de Wynter stood before Jamal
His jaw set firm to force a fiendish brawl
They battled nobly at the Herald’s call,
Shawn failed which left the knight still standing tall.
Jamal is chivalry unto his core!
One more to face, Count Sven the wily foe.
Each man drew back and launched a mighty blow,
Sven stood his ground and laid dear Jamal low.
Jamal’s nobility will always show!
Jamal’s good chivalry makes our hearts soar!
- — Baron Beorn of the Northern Sea
- ... is an aging warrior-poet from the Shetland Islands. Born of an illicit tryst between a Norse trader and an Irish noblewoman, he was born out of wedlock at the Monastery in Lunnasting, Shetland. Originally an oblate to the monks, he left to council the sinners of Scotland during their horrific war with the Longshanks. After slaying an English knight rather than see a defenseless Welshman slain, he abandoned the cloister and used his linguistic and musical education for more worldly purposes.
