Dragonfall at Barrowbell

Battle ยท Book 4 ยท Knights Magi ยท Victory

Tyndal and Rondal's celebrated slaying of the great dragon driven against Barrowbell โ€” the event that made them household names across the Kingdom.

The Dragonfall at Barrowbell is one of the signature public triumphs of the series. With most of northern Gilmora depopulated by the gurvani invasion, Barrowbell was for a time the last defended city in the region. When a great dragon was driven against its walls, Tyndal and Rondal, still young knights magi, brought it down.

The victory made them national heroes and left Barrowbell with both a dragon-slain reputation and a lively demimonde of eager admirers. The aftermath is one of the great set-pieces of Knights Magi.
