After a knight learns that one of these objects he had previously been told not to ask questions about belonged to his deceased cousin, that knight, Peredur, (-5[1])assists Arthur in slaying the nine sorceresses. After the enchanter Eliavres magically (-5[1])replaces one of these objects, he reveals that he is the natural father of Caradoc. In the third of the Unfortunate Disclosures, King Arthur egotistically unearths one of these objects (-5[1])that was (*) buried on the White Hill to protect England. (10[1])In Bricriu’s Feast, Cú Chulainn (koo KULL-in) wins (10[1])the “champion’s portion” by bravely offering this object to a (10[2])visiting giant, in the first instance of a trope in Celtic myth (10[1])involving a game of (10[1])severing (10[1]-5[2])these objects. For 10 points, what object is shockingly picked up by the (10[1])Green Knight (10[1])after Gawain cleanly strikes his (10[3])neck? ■END■
