Dear Blake Beattie:
I may be totally mistaken but this sounds remarkably like the story
about the young Merlin who as the son of a devil and a princess
became the chosen victim whose sacrifice would secure the foundations
of the planned castle. My brain is not in full gear at the moment
but it is a story that you will probably find in Geoffrey of
Monmouth. Perhaps other listmembers will know more.
