Tintagel

Notes

Cornish sea-cliff stronghold and likely refuge of Gorlois and Ygraine after Exeter proved lightly defended and empty of its true prizes.

Timeline

• 490: After Exeter falls, Uther identifies Tintagel as Gorlois and Ygraine’s likely refuge and marches his army there as autumn begins. (Source: Session 034 - Erge, Exeter, and the Hounds of Hecate)
• 490: Cornish forces sally to disrupt Uther’s siege preparations; the fighting is inconclusive but Cornwall is forced back into Tintagel and Uther’s siege begins in earnest. (Source: Session 035 - The Battle of Tintagel and the Brownies of Appleby)
• 490: Liam and Drustin consider acquiring a boat to inspect Tintagel’s seaward cliffs and later infer that the army likely circled back toward Tintagel. (Source: Session 036 - The Sun-Water of Loch Lomond and the Road to Merlin)
