Seething with vengeance cultivated over two thousand years of captivity, Lord Caelwas breaks from his Faerie-mandated prison and enslaves a sect of humanity and inflames them onto a course of destruction. So begins Pilgrimage of the Faerie. Through immense travail, the young but now burdened Baytel, Druid of the Citadel, only gradually becomes aware of a powerful evil now at large. With word that his love Tira and her friend-in-battle Delphinade are imprisoned in darkness, Druid Baytel is torn between love, and loyalty to the Citadel. As cross-currents of missions verge on failure, suspicion undermines devotion, and conflicting loyalties emerge, Baytel’s battle-tested Companions unite in response, realizing they must employ all of their intelligence, courage, good humor and loyalty to face forces they do not yet comprehend. And the land itself rumbles ominously. What happened to the Tree Faeries? And where is Baytel?

These paired Arthurian legends suggest that erotic desire and the desire for companionship undergird national politics. The maiden Britomart, Queen Elizabeth's fictional ancestor, dons armor to search for a man whom she has seen in a crystal ball. While on this quest, she seeks to understand how one can be chaste while pursuing a sexual goal, in love with a man while passionately attached to a woman, a warrior princess yet a wife. As Spenser's most sensitively developed character, Britomart is capable of heroic deeds but also of teenage self-pity. Her experience is anatomized in the stories of other characters, where versions of love and friendship include physical gratification, torture, mutual aid, competition, spiritual ecstasy, self-sacrifice, genial teasing, jealousy, abduction, wise government, sedition, and the valiant defense of a pig shed.
