# Winter

Sir Roland approaches the Covenant with his knights and soldiers. He challenges the magi which Marcus accepts and fights him in his bear form, causing a heavy wound and then accepting his request to stop.

## End of season business

### A new book by Igneous

Igneous contributes to the library a tractatus, Q11, on Ignem, titled *Seeing through the Fire*.
He claims 4p vis salary ... Ignem or Rego.

### Adelaine

Adelaine is a woman in her 30s, having served as a redcap for about a decade.
She is due a new enchanted device, which Philippedes is commisioned to
enchant.  She brings:

- A lab text to invest a locket as a lesser enchanted device.  An arcane connection 
  can be put inside the locket, and if one firmly says «Home» while toching the locket,
  one is teleported to whereever the arcane connection connects.
  This is for Philippedes to keep if he desires.
- The locket to be enchanted, brass with a magnetic lock.
- 4p Corpus Vis for the enchantment
- The *Corpus Hermeticum*, the Branch of Corpus, L19Q16, on loan for five years.

### Letters

Lambaird can offer the following titles in exchange for titles of similar quality
on Creo, Corpus, Ignem, Perdo, Finesse, and Penetration.

- *Passion for Fire* by Sakratus of Flambeau, sound tractatus on Ignem.
- *Increasing the Sting* by Elaine of Flambeau, sound tractatus on Penetration

- *The Fundamental Grimoire of Perdo* containing about 12 magnitudes of low-level Perdo spells.
- *Mind over Body* by Euphemia of Bonisagus, sound tractatus on Mentem.

(They are not interested in the Finesse and Penetration books
of yours, as they have already read them.  They are, however, interested in
the two Corpus tractatus that you have.)


The Panchia of Nerius can offer the following titles in exchange for titles of similar quality
in virtually any art, Magic Theory, Finesse, or Penetration.

- Animàl L10Q18 in Latin, Q12 in Gaelic

- *The little Grimoire* containing about 12 magnitudes of low-level Herbam spells, in Gaelic.
- *The second Grimoire* containing about 12 magnitudes of low-level Animàl spells, in Gaelic.

Both of these covenants can deliver within a season.

Semitae, in Stonehenge, can deliver, within three seasons, sound tractatus on Rego or Muto, 
in exchange for similar texts on Muto, Corpus, or Vim.

Other offers would be for damaged or vain books, of subsound quality.

Catalogues from the continent are expected within a season or two.

# Spring

Sir Roland visits to see if we can identify the wizards in his vision.
We do indeed find them, preparing to cast a ritual from a location
sympathetically linked to Killaloe, halfway between the covenant and the
village at the lakeshore.

Two wizards were killed, and three captured.

+ Fire thrower (deceased): Guaire
+ Light bender: Columb
+ Leader (deceased): Colcu
+ Animal handler: Fothud
+ Fifth druid: Amalgaid

The ritual was part of the warfare by Connacht against sir Roland's
family, the King of Munster.

Agreed trade with Redcaps:
