Finally finished reading the Warlord Chronicles, and oh my god. Cornwell put me through the emotional wringer here. Ceinwyn, my dear Ceinwyn. You are beautiful and brave and the most perfect woman possible for Derfel.
Guinevere- I'm so proud of you, overcoming the whole Isis episode and becoming a capable warrior.
Nimue- I hate you. I hate you. I hate you. I cheered (and cried) when Derfel had his hand cut off to rid himself of his oath to you.
Arthur- All you ever wanted was land, a home and a place to practise being a smith. I hope you find that in Avalon, because you of all people deserve it.
Sagramor- oh dear sweet Sagramor. Your tears upon reaching Arthur were what started the serious crying. What a life you had led.
Galahad- dear sweet Galahad. I'm glad you were able to escape to Avalon. Take care of Guinevere
And finally, Derfel. What can I say- one of the best narrators of a story I've ever come across. So loyal and true, forced by love into obeying Sansum, desecration of your body to defy Nimue, loyal to Arthur beyond his death. I'm glad that Hywelbane was returned to you in the end, and that you will die a warriors death, like your fathe. Ceinwyn and your daughters await you, may you rest well son of a king.
