The Fairy Horn


The fairy Horn is a folk tale based just outside of Gloucester, by using various websites I came across one which explained the tale in a short version. I wrote my own notes on this.





I have highlighted areas which I found important to the story as well as parts which I thought would be useful for drawing images to go with my article. 
The descriptive segments are particularly useful for this. 
One thing I realized about this particular story is that the Knight's Wyvern(Dragon)shield is mentioned multiple times throughout which implies that this is a important part of the tale. 

When reading this tale I was interested by the fact when the Earl of Gloucester has been informed about the Knight stealing the Fairy Horn, he did not return it to the cup-bearer but instead gave it to King Henry the Elder.
