Soumillet

Soumeillet, Soumilloit

Father of Arthur’s knight Fergus.

Although he was rich, and married to a noble-born woman, he raised his children as peasants and ploughmen. When Fergus announced his intention to leave their home country of Pelande for Arthur’s court, Soumillet’s angry fist was sustained only by his temperate wife.
