Her Excellency, Baroness Caitrina inghean Fhearghuis
She is a middle of the 14th century Scot from Argyll and descendent from line of Fergus Mór, the king of Dál Riata. Caitrina is the only child to a widowed father, who raised her the only way he knew how, by teaching her the ways of the bow and blade, just as he would have taught a son. After her father’s passing, Caitrina traveled, joined a group of Norse Scots, and found that their way of life suited her.
