The Three Arrows: Fate of the Black Douglas (Scottish Folklore)

The Fate (or weird in scots) of the three arrows, is an old Scottish tale which revolves around Sir James Douglas. He was known to be one of the greatest knights in Scotland. This was not for his ability to command man, but for his mastery of fear as a tool of war and his personal ferocity in battle. There were very few English men that crossed swords with Douglas and lived to tell the tale. Many in Scotland knew him as Good Sir James as he had always championed Bruce’s claim for the throne. For years Douglas would hold the border between Scotland and England. On many occasions he would lead raiding parities south into Northumbria. The English of the border feared Sir Douglas so much, they thought of his as some form of demon. It was then he was given the moniker of the Black Douglas, since all the people of England knew that death followed wherever the Douglas went. One Night while the Black Douglas was stationed in Jedburgh, he met a strange old woman who engaged him in a quest of revenge.
