For some time I've been wanting to write fiction based on the Picts, whose kingdom encompassed most of Scotland in the Dark Ages. Until now, however, I've struggled to think of a way to introduce them. They remain a relatively obscure race from a shadowy time. I think the following piece solves this problem.
