A young, idealistic priest, Aigulf takes his responsibilities seriously, seeing himself as not just a conduit to God but also as a shepherd for his parish. He fearlessly stood up to the tyrannical Sir Eingar, going so far as to perform a marriage for a peasant couple behind Eingar’s back. The peasants of Esneux continue to look to Aigulf for guidance and leadership, regardless of who resides in the hall of Eingarstein.
