Queen Margareta and King Erik are taking some time off from fighting German knights and reducing the property ownership of the nobility to attend to some personal matters, because it is time for King Erik to get married! After some scouting around for suitable wives, the choice falls on an English Princess, Filippa. We delve deep into the marriage negotiations, preparations and practicalities around this royal marriage of the ages. This includes how many squirrels were needed for the wedding dress and how much beer the English wedding guests brought with them (spoiler: a lot).
