Bridge of the Giant

Bridge of Giants

The custom of the bridge was that its guardian must remain there until he was defeated by another knight or until four months had passed.

A knight named Golistan the Black served as its guardian for a while, but he was defeated by Seguarant the Brown. Another guardian was Sir Neroneus of the Isle.
