A Matter of Two Swords: Honor and Chivalry of Sir Balin le Savage by GrievousGuile (DireStrike)
Fandoms: Arthurian Mythology, Le Morte d'Arthur - Thomas Malory
18 Mar 2026
Tags
Summary
Sir Balin le Savage is a lesser-known knight from the early days of King Arthur's Round Table. His impacts on later stories can be traced back to his single book in the early sections of Le Morte d'Arthur. His chivalric actions lead to these tales, but he lay forgotten and confined to this early entry. Despite this, Sir Balin le Savage proves that his chivalry and the consequences thereof allow him to stand head and shoulders above many of his peers.

Summary
Bilbo Baggins didn’t believe in luck. But when he managed to be in the right places at the right times to save Fíli, Kíli, and Thorin, he comes to learn that Dwarves have a very intense meaning of loyalty.
Due to injuries, Fíli and Kíli are unable to do that they feel is a proper thanks, so the burden falls upon Thorin, who realizes that Hobbit culture is far different from that of Dwarves.

Summary
"Arthur the king is dead. Arthur the ravager yet lives."
Arthur expected headhunters to loot his corpse as he lay under the bodies of his men in the blood-soaked fields of Camlan. He never predicted the enemy would instead crave his prowess for spoil.
Cold executioner of justice, Creoda of the Gewisse, has been blessed by the moon god to taste death but not to succumb. Every murder he suffers demands blood as the price of his divine wergild. As long as he serves Mōna, he will pursue his butchers with neither fear nor mercy in his heart.
But even a tireless wolf like Creoda suffers the occasional thorn of conscience. In order to live as a normal man, he must slay the source of his curse: his brother. Emboldened by Arthur's fiery spirit but wary of his reckless nature, Creoda offers his captive a grim proposition: to fight, flee, or die.
Arthur tests the Saxon's limits by fire, water, and blade. Each brutal encounter teaches him a little more about Creoda - and himself - than he cares to admit. Armed with only his wits, a hexed sword, the loyalty of his companion, Bedwyr, and death's cold whispers swirling about him, he must conquer his demons... Or find his head on a pike.
