Introduction

Hlæfdige (Baroness) Eadgyth æt Stæningum is a teacher and mentor, a thrown weapons marshal, a lucet corder, and a person with a nitpicky sort of brain which she mostly tries to make useful in good service. Or shenanigans. Or both, at the same time.

Persona

Eadgyth is a Saxon living in the latter half of the 11th century, in the southern coastal river-port town currently known as Steyning.
