Crusading Knights Face Pirate Galleys at Freshwater Bay
Sir Nigel and Sir Oliver lead a coastal defense against Norman pirate leader Terenoire and Genoese Spade-beard. The cog battles two galleys in fierce close combat while Goodwin Hawtayne commands Southampton crews. After a brutal duel, Nigel is hurt but survives and the party reaches Bordeaux as Chandos reunites.
