AGON - The Celtic Otherworld (1/3)
While embroiled in a mighty battle in the first quesrter of the 7th Century CE four heroes are chosen to decide the fate of the Otherworld and of the mortal realms it underpins.
We meet Blacwyn Silver-Handed; Iamon Monster-Hunter; Cuxsusia Far-Seer; and Vecinda Man-Tamer. Then there are portents, feuding warbands, ravens … and … regicide.

AGON - The Celtic Otherworld (2/3)
One Hero is welcomed back into the body of the warband as Aethelflaed Lion-Hearted is chosen to take their place and lead the next stage of the quest to decide the fate of the Otherworld. Blacwyn Silver-Handed’s Courage leaves him scarred by the Cauldron of Storms; Iamon Monster-Hunter shows his Acumen and slays a Wyrm before finally owning his title as Prince of Elmet; and Vecinda Man-Tamer is the embodiment of Passion as she tries to convince a brigand that there is a better way. Then, there are more Wyrms, a Wyrm-rider and … a strife that proves impossible to settle.

Meanwhile, both Aethelflaed Lion-Hearted and Vecinda Man-Tamer attempt to tinker with Fates already woven. Seeking the shears among the discarded threads of Fate that create mesmerising images of lives that might have been: Iamon decides he is happier with the love he has than that which might have been; Vecinda protects Blacwyn from becoming lost among the threads of Fates unlived, while Blacwyn returns the favour; and Aethelflead seeks to grasp the shears from the back of her Wyrm. Then there is the familiar sounds of a musician’s drum, parting mists and legends that will be told and re-told in times to come …
