Gossip

The Round Table knights certainly earne their keep last year. And it's time to do it again. The Saxons are coming in force! What will we do? 'Ibis is one time that I am glad we have a strong ariny.

It's too easy to remember how bad everything was before the King came! All those raids, all those deaths. It certainly has been better now

Have you seen that young man, the White Knight? What pale eyes, and such fine hair… you know he's come of good lineage. Even if he doesn't tell us his name like a good knight ought. (If knight he is - I think he is a monk in armor! He eats only bread and fish and has not glanced twice at a woman.)

I sure wish that Merlin was still around. I can't believe that he is alive or else he would be here now, in the time of Britain's greatest need.

Merlin is not dead, only ill! He has been nursed by that Lady of the Lake who has been his apprentice. The one everyone says is his lover. (As if that old man was interested!)

King Pellinore is coming to help us again, and with him all the kings of Cambria. Imagine having all those wild Welshmen with their long knives on our side for a change!

News Kay Impressed by the White Knight? He is certainly a fine young knight, if knight he is. He guards his chastity like a young girl! Let's see if he acts the part of a real man in the coming 'battle with the Saxons. Brastias This is it: the Saxons' big push. Their entire army has mustered, and they've called in all their friends from overseas. We Round Table knights will make the first charge if I have my way. Gawaine Those oath-breaking Saxons! They turned right around and joined their cousins after swearing to leave our land.' Arthur has hanged all their hostages, you kncyw. Royal Conversation Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country. The Saxons are preparing for a big push. They are all busy stealing horses, laying in corn, and greeting the shiploads of their barbarian cousins from the continent. We expect 30,000 of them. Intrigue King Arthur is troubled because messengers have arrived from Ganis where his allies, Ban and Bors, have asked him to send men to help them out, as they helped him long ago. They are being attacked by King Claudas of France and many of his vassal counts.
