Lanval, or, Legally Hotter

Lanval, one of the Lais of Marie de France, is a medieval tale that puts the "knight" in "nightmare date." It tells the story of a guy who's so good-looking that even unicorns get jealous, but his love life takes a wild turn when he meets a fairy queen who can't keep her magical powers in check.
