That was interesting I wasn’t aware of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight there are definite parallels relating the waxing and waning of power.

No I read a translated version of the original I’ll have a look at Tolkiens version.

This is really nice I went back and read the first part that I’d missed, I’ll now have to investigate Sir Gawain and the Green Knight.

If you do, do let me know what you think! I definitely didn't interpret it as an oak/holly king tale originally, but I can see that angle.

Thanks for reading ☺️
