About the Class

There was once a young fellow who had learnt the trade of locksmith and told his father he would now go out into the world and seek his fortune. "Very well," said the father, "I am quite content with that," and gave him some money for his journey. So he travelled about and looked for work.

After a time he resolved not to follow the trade of locksmith anymore, for he no longer liked it, but he took a fancy for hunting. Then there met him in his rambles a huntsman dressed in green, who asked whence he came and whither he was going?

The youth said he was a locksmith's apprentice, but that the trade no longer pleased him, and he had a liking for huntsmanship, would he teach it to him?

"Oh, yes," said the huntsman, "if thou wilt go with me." Then the young fellow went with him, bound himself to him for some years, and learnt the art of hunting.

The Huntsmen goes on to defeat three giants before marrying a beautiful princess.

In this session, we will explore aspects of the warrior archetype and how it may be tempered and refined.
