It is hilarious, but there is a WHOLE LOT of that kind of thing throughout military history. Bunker Hill is probably the most famous. It was fought a stone's throw away from Bunker Hill, on Breed's Hill.
Hastings is so critical to Western Civilization that I don't think I can possibly overstate its importance to history. It reshaped the political, social, and cultural landscape to a ludicrous degree, for centuries. I mean, we're speaking English largely as a result of the Battle of Hastings (and, you know, Chaucer), and that's not even touching the political ripple effect.
I guess that's the kind of thing that happens when you have a starborn running around unchecked.

I wonder if that starborn is with us today, just in a dormant state.

Nah, William the Conqueror is long dead. (/speculation)

Encased in Green Crystal?

Likely. Or he gave up his magic, something like Mac. I thought about Nic too, but with his Starborn ability lessened, maybe because he broke so many promises/deals.
