NIGHTBRINGER | The Arthurian Encyclopedia

Earl of Pase


The uncle of the Damsel of La Beale Regard.

Morgan having usurped that castle, the Damsel sent a message to her uncle requesting him to come and burn La Beale Regard with wildfire. Hating Morgan, he complied.

His earldom would probably be within fairly easy reach of La Beale Regard.


Note
A member of the nobility. The title earl is Anglo-Saxon and is the same as the Scandinavian jarl (‘chieftain’), they ruled their territories in a king’s stead. During the medieval times, in Scandinavia, the title was replaced with hertig, duke, which later on became equivalent with Count on the Continent.
