Urcheon of Erlenwald

Lord Urcheon of Erlenwald, who had been engaged in a secret relationship with Pavetta for a year, interrupted the betrothal party. With his face hidden under knight's armor, he came to claim Pavetta's hand in marriage. Eist knocked his helmet off, revealing a monstrous form, that of a humanoid porcupine. Queen Calanthe requested that Geralt kill him, but he refused as Urcheon was no monster. He'd been cursed. Queen Calanthe ordered her guards to kill Urcheon regardless. Urcheon disarmed the guards and explained to Queen Calanthe that Pavetta belonged to him via the Law of Surprise. More of the queen's guards attacked and Geralt came to his defense, and together they dispatched of Queen Calanthe's guards. An even larger fight then broke out between the guests until Queen Calanthe commanded the fighting to end.
