麦考德家族的仙女旗

 麦考德家族的仙女旗

Paul King

在邓弗根城堡的客厅里,摆放着麦克劳德家族最珍贵的宝物。 它是一面旗子,相当破烂,由褪色的棕色丝绸制成,并在一些地方精心缝制。 这就是麦克劳德家族的仙女旗。

1066年,挪威国王哈拉尔-哈德拉达(Harald Hardrada)开始征服英格兰。 他带走了一面神奇的旗帜--"土地掠夺者"。 这面旗帜保证谁拥有它就能获得胜利。 在斯坦福桥战役中,哈拉尔-哈德拉达被杀,那面旗帜也消失了

邓韦根的麦克劳德家族可以追溯到哈拉尔德,他们拥有一面破旧的丝绸旗帜,叫做仙女旗。 仙女旗是如何出现在麦克劳德家族的家园--斯凯岛的邓韦根城堡的,从来没有人知道,但据说一位麦克劳德在圣地进行十字军东征时收到了它。

有一个传统,如果MacLeod家族在战斗中遇到危险,他们可以展开仙女旗,然后他们就会立于不败之地。 但这个魔法只起三次作用,而且过去已经用过两次。

1490年,MacLeod家族与MacDonalds进行了一场绝望的战斗。 他们展开了旗帜,战局立即发生了变化。 许多MacDonalds被杀,胜利归于MacLeod家族。

第二次是在1520年的Waternish。 Clanranald分支的MacDonalds再次成为敌人,而MacLeod家族在人数上无可奈何。 仙女旗被展开,MacDonalds被打败了!

在第二次世界大战期间,许多年轻的族人都带着国旗的照片作为幸运符。

不幸的是,在1938年Dunvegan城堡被大火严重破坏时,这面旗子并没有完全发挥作用,但如果没有仙女旗,也许城堡就会被完全摧毁。 谁知道呢?
