The Song of Gerand was a folk song telling the tale of a warrior in Alagaësia named Gerand. The song described the warrior Gerand, who relinquished his sword for a wife and farm. A jealous lord declared a blood feud against Gerand and his family, and he was forced to take up arms once again. Forced to kill once more, he chose to make the instrument of his fighting a simple hammer. Gerand was said to be considered the greatest warrior of his age.
