Amene of Korntin

Amena, Amire

Wife of King Lar of Korntin, and mother of Larie.

Her husband was killed by King Roaz of Glois, and Amene was driven to a castle called Roimunt at the edge of Korntin – the only fortress strong enough to withstand Roaz. There she remained for a decade, offering her daughter as a prize to any knight who would kill Roaz.

Finally, her lady Nereja brought Wigalois (Gawain’s son) from Arthur’s court. Wigalois killed Roaz, married Larie, and, although assuming the crown of Korntin for himself, restored Amene to a life of comfort.
