A group of warriors or nobles accompanying a king or other leader; comitatus.
1992, J. A. V. Haney and Eric Dahl, “On Igor’s Campaign” (translation of ''The Tale of Igor's Campaign|Слово о плъку Игоревѣ''):
- Then Igor looked up at the bright sun and saw all his warriors / darkened from it by a shadow. / And Igor said to his retinue: / “Brothers and companions! It is better to be slain than taken captive. / Mount, brothers, your swift horses that we may glimpse the Blue Don.”
A service relationship.
