Harmel

In the Post-Vulgate Merlin continuation and in Malory, Balin agrees to help a knight (called Sir Garnysh of the Mount by Malory) reconcile with Duke of Harniel’s daughter. Upon finding the girl sleeping with another knight, Balin’s companion murdered the girl and her lover and then killed himself.
