MARFISAAAAAA!

She's got a squire who's her chambermaid?!! And her lance (RIP) is apparently a narwhal tusk?!?!!! (I.XVIII.4: "Marfisa bore a long and massive lance, All wrought of polished bone; twas immense.")

WHERE is my queer fan fiction, who do I send money to immediately?? (And this is before we even get to Bradamante and Fiordispina at the end... make it a fan fic duology, then...)

Technically from the last update, but I remembered it now. From I.VI: "'Tis my mischance to suffer your oration!" MOOD.

As for this update: I have a feeling Gradasso isn't gonna let his pony go that easily....

Clad to know Ariosto just continued Boiardo's trope of every mass fight scene just being "Lancelot storming the castle" from MP's Holy Grail.

Also, the fact that this whole epic starts off with Gradasso being a major horse-girly and invading a continent and a half just because *stomps foot and points at Baiardo* "I want that pony!!"
