[Summary of the prologue of "Guigemar", lay of Marie de France, mediaeval writer]

One day Guigemar, a young man incapable of loving, finds a doe and her fawn in the forest. The animal is completely white with stag’s antlers. The knight, not bothered by the fact that the creature is a mother, fires his bow and struck the animal in the forehead. The doe falls immediately, but the arrow ricochets and penetrates Guigemar's thigh. He falls down beside the suffering animal, who suddenly speaks and curses the man for inflicting fatal injuries on her: "May you never find a cure…until you are cured by a woman's love. You will suffer for her and she will suffer as much for you"

"Dad, why didn't you tell us that mom was mortal?"

"I'm sorry, my deer"
