Marshal Terleman's climactic tournament bout with the Lion of Gilmora, staged in Barrowbell during the Gilmoran campaigns.
The Barrowbell Tournament is the public set-piece of the Gilmoran mid-war. Marshal Terleman, using Barrowbell as his headquarters during the Gilmoran campaigns, is drawn into a formal tournament bout with the Lion of Gilmora that becomes a symbol of the campaign's political theatre. Terleman's victory is as much diplomatic as martial — it marks the Magelaw's presence in Gilmora as a fact rather than a project.
