Waerkynsceal is the beginning of a series I like to call 'Tales of the Taigh' a semi-medieval Celtic lore based fantasy-adventure series. In Waerkynsceal, we follow the heroic deeds of the Durihnd Clan, one of many families of the Taigh, and their involvement with the cunning beasts of the wilds known as Waerkyn. In this first part, we look at Dorland Er Durihnd, the last surviving member of the clan who lives as a simple farmer in the small town of Tippehill. One day, an old Waerkyn by the name of Rulaf Darkpaw wanders into the Taigh after becoming lost and causes damage in his travels. The people grow fearful and call upon the king's guard - the Vandgard, in order to deal with Rulaf, but as the Vandgard has not had to deal with such issues in many years and their members are made up of spoiled nobility, they take too long to assemble, and so when Rulaf finally makes his way to Tippehill, Dorland, feeling a renewed sense of adventure he had lost from his childhood, takes it upon himself to hunt and possibly kill Rulaf. This encounter sets off a chain reaction in which Cynmaer Grimmaw, the lord of the Waerkyn, goes to avenge Rulaf and seeks out the supposed "Wolf-chaser". Dorland is once again called upon to handle this Waerkyn, but at the same time, the people plead for the king's guard to arrive. Will Dorland be able to handle the ferocious and highly dangerous Cynmaer Grimmaw? Read to find out.
