FEIREFIZ. Arthurian
legend name of Sir Percival's mulatto half-brother, meaning "of
checkered color." (King Arthur and the
Table Round, Chretien-Newell, 1911)
... The lord of the magic
castle, wherein are kept prisoners Arthur's mother and the other queens,
is Clinschor, nephew of Virgilius of Naples, who took to magic after his
unmanning at the hands of King Ibert, whose wife, Iblis, he loved.
Gawain overcomes the magician, and, both unknowing, fights with Parzival.
The latter, after many lesser adventures, meets his half-brother
Feirefiz, and sustains with him the hardest of all his fights. At
length recognition is brought about, the two embrace, and repair to
Arthur's court. Cundrie nears once more, tells Parzival he has
been chosen Grail king, that his wife and twin sons, Loherangrin and
Kardeiz, have been summoned to the Grail castle, and that the question
will now free Amfortas and his land. With Cundrie and Feirefiz,
Parzival rides to the Grail castle, meets his wife, together they all
behold the talismans, save Feirefiz, to whom as a heathen the sight of
the Grail is denied. But he is baptised, weds Repanse de Schoie,
the Grail damsel, the two return to India, and from them is born Prester
John... (Studies on the Legend of the Holy Grail, Nutt, 1888)
