Kaylet of Hoskurast


The King of Spain and Castille during the reign of Uther in Britain. His capital was Toledo.

He was prompted by his uncle Schiltunc to join King Vridebrant of Scotland’s invasion of the African kingdom of Zazamanc. He was defeated in the invasion, with the others, by Perceval’s father Gahmuret, who also happened to be Kaylet’s maternal cousin.

Kaylet had once loved Alize, sister of King Hardiz of Gascony. Hardiz, however, gave Alize to King Lambekin of Brabant instead. Kaylet then married the lady Rischoyde. Kaylet was also the maternal uncle of Killirjacac.
