Page "Calafia" Paragraph 9
from

To restore their honor she directed her forces to fight alongside those of her allies, with the griffins kept in the ships.
Calafia led a picked group of women warriors to attack a city gate, one held by Norandel, the half-brother of King Amadis.
Norandel charged out of the gate against Calafia ; upon meeting their two lances were broken but the warriors remained standing.
They struck at each other with sword and knife, and a general melee ensued, Calafia throwing knights from their horses and taking great blows on her shield.
Two more knights charge forward from the city, nobles named Talanque ( a nephew of King Amadis ) and Maneli, a prince of Ireland.
These men nearly swamp Calafia in blows, and she can only be pulled back to friendly forces by her sister Liota who attacks the two knights " like a mad lioness ".
