A Chevalien Knight in Oraispol, 1262 (artifact)

A Chevalien Knight in Oraispol, 1262, is a fantasy story by Chevalien scholar Mitheux Chridae imagining a Marcher knight named Maduex den va Chrisay in Oraispol as the Sjalvolki conquer Aversaria around it. Maduex is exceptionally skilled with a blade, sharp with his tongue and wit, and stalwart of heart and in devotion to his Path, and battles evil Aversarian Magi and warlords before joining the Sjalvolki to aid them in their fights. Maduex soon rises up the ranks, becomes the greatest of comrades with the Witch-Breaker himself, and then converts him to the Lifepath and becomes his Wayfather.

The most popular of Mitheux's works, the idea of imagining a history that isn't proved novel enough for the obvious... oddities in the narrative to be ignored, and it has since become popular for troubadors to reenact. Its popularity proved so great that it caused several Wayfathers to even attempt to travel with and convert the Sjalvolki themselves, to mixed results.
