Sir Tristian

Good Evening this is Sir Tristian here. It is sad that this coming to an end and it has been a pleasure to live this journey with everyone. However, once the death of king Arthur I went to go start life with my beautiful lady Isoud, to say it was a difficult path in order to enjoy my life. I was on a list of knights to come capture me and be killed for my actions of being with Isoud. I ran for a while to be eventual shot by a position arrow and that is how I rest in peace.

Sir Meliagrance #8

Greetings,
What happened to me after King Arthur's death you ask? I must confess that I omitted a rather minute detail during our last few talks...Sir Lancelot killed me during his rescue of Queen Guinevere. I was not banished from the lands, Lancelot split my head in half off of my cowardly body. In death, I have realized that I do not deserve my Knighthood for I am just an insolent coward. I apologize for kidnapping our Queen , and misleading you to think that I was righteous. Adieu. 

Sir Ywain #8

I wish I were able to describe events taking place in my life after the battle of Camlann, however that is not what God intended for me. During the battle King Arthur was dismounted from his steed by the King of Northumbria, and seeing this I went to his aid and killed the would be challenger. Unfortunately, while helping Arthur remount his horse, I was struck a mortal blow by the tyrannical Mordred.  I have no regrets taking part in this battle, and hope my wife Laudine, and child Idrus forgive me for leaving them too soon. We will meet again.

Goodbye from Merlin

It saddens me to announce that Camelot has fallen, and our beloved king lies dead in the field. I saw it with my own eyes before it happened. It was Mordred, Arthur's son. What a bastard. But I can not only be upset with Mordred. I knew this would happen; foresaw it in a vision. I should have tried harder to warn Arthur. He should have taken my advice. Now our allegiance lies in Guinevere alone. Although she has claimed to regret her previous actions, she let down her kingdom once before. Now all we can do is wait; wait for another king to rise and lead our lands. Until then, I shall journey to the forest where tranquility will allow me to reflect on the recent events. Farewell my friends, and to Arthur, may you rest in peace. Until next time.

King Mark of Cornwall #8

Greetings to all, as I must say this is the end! Although, I do not have any ties or relation to King Arthur, it is extremely heart breaking to see a noble king like himself pass away. As I remain king of Cornwall for my on going years, I will make sure no man dares to defeat me. The difference between King Arthur and I is that he let his nephew, Mordred, defeat him in the battle yet I slayed my nephew Tristan with no remorse! However, my time soon comes to an end, for I was killed by the revenge-seeking Sir Bellangre le Beuse, a grandson of my brother Baldwin.

Sir Bedivere: The Final Battle

I stood beside my king all throughout my knighthood despite all the trials and tribulations he faced including the ones involving his beloved, cheating queen and dishonorable knight until the day he died. King Arthur's final battle at Camlann was a mighty one fought against his nephew, Mordred. It is sad to say that the great king died shortly after his army triumphed. I was the last of the knights of the round table to be left alive at the end of the battle. As King Arthur received his mortal wound from Mordred I was told to return Excalibur to the Lady of the Lake. After this I traveled to Glastonbury hermitage. I remained here with all the great memories of being a knight of the round table and of King Arthur until my death.

Sir Galahad #8

I don't believe I can tell you about my fate after the battle of Camlann for I perished before the fight. After many adventures, I was able to locate the Holy Grail with the help of Sir Bors and Sir Percival. We found the holy relic in the Corbenic in the castle of The Maimed King Pellam. After discovering that Camelot was unworthy of the great chalice, we set sail for the holy city of Sarras. Here we were imprisoned by Sarasens; but it was no discomfort, for The Grail brought me and my companions great feast. After a time, their king fell ill and on his deathbed he asked for our forgiveness and perished. It was after this that I became king of this land, and soon after I witnessed a great vision. I saw Christ and his angels, and wished to be raised to Him. And from that moment on, I was at peace.

Mordred #8

Destiny is a strange thing, don’t you agree? Suffice it to say, this is not how I intended things to go. You know, I spent so many years imagining how it would feel to have my father’s life’s blood reddening my sword that I hadn’t really considered what I would do after. Ruling Caemlot was the general thought, but even that lost a certain…something. What could be done, really? Make it less corrupt, make it a bastion of purity and goodness? It can never be done, and even if it could be, I would have little interest in such an undertaking. The only one who could have made a try at it died years. 

Dead, dead, dead. That is the word of the day. My brothers, Agravaine, Gareth, Gaheris-Even Gawain, all dead. My foster-brother Sagramore, dead. My nephews, dead. 

My father-I should have enjoyed killing him, I think. After all, it was the great, promised end to the tale, was it not? The great king killed by his own bastard after a lifetime spent at the extremes of either weakness or brutality. Instead, I felt…empty as I watched him waste away along with me. Perhaps it was then that I realized that, for all those years, all I had ever really wanted was for him to look at me for more than a second. I tried it first as a knight, bounding after him like a stray pup, and then I strove to be his enemy. It was only then, in those last moments that I believe he looked on me as a father, and, in those few moments, I could have almost been the youth of fourteen bounding through the halls of Camelot for the first time again. 


Perhaps it’s for the best that I never walked away from Camlann. After all, it is hardly as if fate intended anything else for me. My part in this affair is over and, whatever else is done, we are both...free now, I suppose. 

Finally

Sir Bors, King of Gannes #8 (Final)

So it had been done, King Arthur is gone so where the rebellions… I followed and left with Sir Lancelot as the land no longer welcomes us. Sir Lancelot decided he wanted to retire as a hermit after the last unification with Guinevere, and I followed suit. Partially because of I don't really have another goal besides being company of my cousin, and I felt I am somewhat responsible for Sir Lancelot’s exile.
Sir Lancelot died as a hermit, as for me, without any one to serve I went back to home, Gannes , and retook what was rightfully mine, settling my homestead. However, I felt something was a miss, after all although it was where I had been born, the land and the people are foreign to me. I felt sitting on a throne isn’t what I meant to be, I miss adventuring and fighting for our lord in heavens. So I took up my arms and ventured out with Sirs Ector, Blamore, and Bleoberis on this crusade in holyland.

Now, wounded in battle on this crusade, I can hear the god is calling up on me, to reunite with my cousin Sir Lancelot and my brother, Leonel…

Sir Lancelot #8


Well friends...I suppose this is the end. In haste I returned to Britain to help my once close friend King Arthur, but I was too late and he was already dead. Feeling there was nothing else I could do, I lived out the remainder of my life as a monk, giving up all earthly things. After hearing of Queen Guinevere’s death, my heart became drowned in sorrow both over her and King Arthur’s death. Was I truly the cause of all of this madness? I died soon after as my spirit could no longer take it. My last happiness was that my last words were indeed honored and I was buried at the Joyous Gard.

Sir Lancelot #7


For the first time, but hopefully not the last time I bid you greeting...albeit on this bitter note. It is true that myself and Queen Guinevere were involved in an affair...I will not deny that. I know that I am a knight, a Round Table knight at that! But, I cannot control my love for someone...as we do not choose that. I can only hope that you, my friends, will understand that I had not meant any harm to come to anyone. So I ask you, to look within your hearts and show me mercy, as I am asking for it. After all, have we all not done something that we now looking back wished we had done differently? After all, are we all not human?    

Isolde #8

I died next to Tristan before Arthur was slain. I do not know what would come after Arthur's death, and at this point, I don't really care since I will be with Tristan forever in death.

Sir Percival #8

This will be my last entry for Camelot has fallen and Arthur is Dead... I am shocked at such an atrocity of one of my dearest friends falling in battle. There are only a few of us left, Knights of Camelot that is, and we have nobly pledged our allegiance to the now widowed Queen Guinevere who has asked for forgiveness and vowed to never see Lancelot again. I will live the rest of my days in peace knowing I have seen the Grail and my quests are coming to an end. I will also know that I have not failed Arthur and his legacy will live on through Guinevere and the the remaining Knights. Good day to you and best of luck.
-Percival

Sir Agravaine #8

Well, it is hard for me to tell you what I would do after the fall of Arthur kingdom since I am dead. According to most versions of my story, I did not make it until the Battle of Camlann and the death of Arthur. I was killed by Sir Lancelot when he came to save Guinevere from her execution. But since I was not a nice guy, I would probably do something bad, like trying to find a way to be the heir to the throne instead of my older brother, Gawain.

Morgan Le Fay Finale

Dear brother... is this really it? Will this be the last time that i can truly be with my own kin? Here we are, in Avalon, you, lying on my lap after just relinquishing your last breathes, and I, overfilled with sorrow. Fitting isn't it that when i finally realize how much you mean to me, that is when I lose you for good. I left Camelot to rid myself of you and your entire life, but now i realize I made a grave mistake. I wish I would of known what I had when i had the chance to cherish it. I feel sorrow that it was my confession that led you to finally believing in Guinevere's infidelity. It pains me to think that I have indirectly led you to the battle you had with Mordred. I wish I would of returned to Camelot when you had allowed me back in. I feel as if i may of been able to save you if I were closer to you. I now have no reason to ever return to Camelot. The king is dead, and Lancelot has left the kingdom. I have lost the man I loved, and the man I took for granted all these years. I will stay here, in the Isles of Avalon, with the other three grieving enchantresses. All four of us have the capability to be dangerous when we're on own own, but will learn how to control our powers in a positive way until we are no more. To redeem oneself is to repent all of the treacherous deeds that they have done in the past, and to never go back to those deceptive ways again. My brother always believed that I had the capability to do good for this world, and I can only hope that I can make him proud. Arthur, son of Igraine, your legacy will not go unnoticed, and you will live on in the memory of those who will always believe in you.

Sir Gawain #8


My dear companions, I fear it is the last time for our correspondence... cough... cough..
After pleading with King Arthur to return Guinevere... cough... from the clutches of sir Lancelot, and laying siege to their Joyous Gard, Lancelot bested my in a duel. I will admit... cough... I was motivated by bitter hatred towards Lancelot for the death of my kin, however, I have recently repented my feelings to him. I only hope that Sir Lancelot can make it to Arthur in his time of need to fight the usurper Mordred... cough... cough...

Sir Kay #8

My world has been torn asunder. My brother and King lies dead at the hands of his bastard son. I cannot believe that I missed the Battle of Camlann. Arthur sent my after Excalibur's scabbard and I could not return in time to defend my brother. Now he is dead and Camelot is falling apart. So many good knights are dead, and for what? I must try to preserve what Arthur created. I will rally those who supported my brother and use my influence over the realm to establish order. I trust that God is on my side and that I can preserve this holy land.

King Mark #7

Good day everyone. I hear of this act of treason by Lancelot and Guinevere on King Arthur's behalf. Therefore I believe that that is absolutely uncivil and disrespectful. Commiting treason means that you have broke trust and loyalty for your king as well as your country. As a King myself, I will not tolerate such actions if treason were committed towards me. I am a very belligerent King who does not have sympathy for those with disrespect towards their ruler, for I have even killed my own family member. So in my eyes, it is best that Sir Lancelot and Guinevere serve the consequences for their guilty actions.

Sir Lancelot #5


Sir Lancelot was likely born in the place where his father KIng Ban ruled; in Benwick, which is between the Loire and Arise rivers.

Above is a picture illustrating Merlin the Magician.
The picture directly above shows Queen Guinevere.

Sir Lancelot #4


A fine day to you all. While I might like to say that I follow the traditional Code of Chivalry...alas, my actions do say differently. A knight in King Arthur’s Round Table is meant to possess certain qualities; valor, honour, loyalty and honesty. In general I have very little taste for senseless violence, and thus, I try to fight only when I need to. Being one of King Arthur’s best, I try to follow all of these however...I am human. If I must lie, let it be to protect those closest to me, if I do kill let it be so others do not have to and if I do love, let it be fiercely and unapologetically with every fiber of my being.
