In The Weirdstone of Brisingamen<\/a><\/em>, Colin, Susan, Fenodyree, Durathror and Gowther were forced to flee Highmost Redmanhey<\/a> after the children recovered Firefrost from Selina Place and Grimnir at St Mary’s Clyffe<\/a> (Weirdstone, Chapter 9, St Mary’s Clyffe<\/em>). They were faced with the threat of the mara who, unlike the morthbrood, could not be dissuaded from crossing a threshold uninvited due to magical custom. Consequently, the fugitives ventured out on the promise of meeting Cadellin on the summit of Shuttlingslow<\/a> (Weirdstone, Chapter 15, A Stromkarl Sings<\/em>). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The journey took three days and two nights during which the travellers were beset by the morthbrood, mara and svart-alfar; eventually arriving at Shuttlingslow<\/a> at dawn one snow-clad Friday morning. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Day One: Highmost Redmanhey to Redesmere<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The first day saw them leave Highmost Redmanhey<\/a>, along Hocker Lane<\/a>. Afterwards, they travelled through the Wood of Radnor<\/a>, Dumville’s Plantation<\/a> and then followed the Bagbrook<\/a> to Capesthorne Game Covert<\/a>. They were then saved from the mara by Angharad Goldenhand and slept on her floating isle at Redesmere<\/a> during the first night (Weirdstone, Chapter 16, The Wood of Radnor; Chapter 17, Mara and Chapter 18, Angharad Goldenhand<\/em>). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
