[And remain bored until the world ended? No thanks!]
No. Their age is long over.
[He couldn't quite say 'they're dead' because Bedivere was out there, as was the Lion King.]
I'm surprised you haven't heard of them, to be honest. Their Legend, or so I've observed, has already reached past the British Isles.
[He tapped his staff on the ground again, showing a few illusions: a cover of T.H. White's book, a part from Disney's The Sword in the Stone, scenes from this series.]
But what is there to say about King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table... yes.
[He braced his chin on the palm of his hand.]
Britain, you must understand, used to have a lot of domestic wars: if they weren't fighting local tribes and other lords, they were fending off invaders.
Uther Pendragon, the previous king, was usurped from the throne and killed. It was prophesized that only his rightful heir would be able to draw the sword from the stone and set the kingdom to rights.
Indeed, his child had been raised away from the court in secret. When the time came she drew Caliburn, the sword of selection, and proved herself worthy of being king. With the Round Table she established, she brought peace back to the kingdom, bringing in a golden age for England that lasted until her own death in battle.
Mind, I can tell you know that Artoria was a girl, but at the time it was a huge secret. Only me and a few others knew she wasn't born male, and so she is known as King Arthur in history and myth.
