Wild Edric: A marriage beyond the mortal

By Amy Douglas and Lucy Wells

The cry of a horn, the trample of hooves, Wild Edric rides over mynd and mountain.

Protector of the land, hero of the people, warrior for peace and harbinger of war, this is a tangled story of love and war, loss and redemption. Storytelling, song and music combine to tell a story that resonates in the bones of the land.

Wild Edric is the scarred hero of the Welsh Marches. He is the guardian of the rugged wild land that creases and rears up into the Shropshire hills. His fairy bride, Godda, like the land, is untamed, beautiful and dangerous.The two form a bridge, between this world and the otherworld, holding the dignity of the old ways against the Norman onslaught.
