Redoubted

1. Redoubted Island

   An island inhabited by a giant.

   During inclement weather, the giant lit fires on the island to attract passing ships in need of a port. When the ships arrived, the giant would kill everyone aboard. The giant was eventually killed by Uther Pendragon.

   Much later, King Mark of Cornwall, after Tristan’s death, was deposed and exiled to the Redoubted Island. However, he eventually escaped and reclaimed his kingdom.

   
   

2. Redoubted Giant of the Sure Keep

   Brother of the Knight-Giant, a knight killed by Arthur in The Knight of the Parrot.

   He attacked Arthur in a forest to avenge his brother’s death. Arthur defeated him. As his brother had died trying to prove his valor to the Duchess of Estrales, the Redoubted Giant took vengeance on this woman by cutting off the arm of one of her ladies, the Countess Bliandois.
