Summary "Child Christopher and Goldilind the Fair" by William Morris is a fantasy novel crafted in the late 19th century. The story unfolds in a mythical woodland kingdom, Oakenrealm, and follows the titular characters, Christopher and Goldilind, as their destinies intertwine amidst themes of nobility, love, and the quest for identity. The opening of the tale introduces readers to King Oakenrealm, a formidable warrior driven by honor and love for his wife, who dies during childbirth. Their son, Christopher, is raised in near obscurity, primarily under the care of Lord Richard in a secluded area. Meanwhile, in the nearby kingdom of Meadham, we learn about Goldilind, the daughter of a well-loved yet dying king, and her subsequent upbringing. As we delve into the narrative, a tapestry of royal duties, hidden heritage, and youthful relationships begins to emerge, foreshadowing adventures and challenges that shape Christopher and Goldilind’s paths. The stage is set for an enchanting tale of discovery and destiny that invites readers to ponder the nature of kinship, duty, and selfhood. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
