GALAHAD :
( Somewhere, deep down…
…I’ve always wanted to be like her.
I couldn’t help it.
That strength,
that determination,
but most of all…
… that refusal to compromise when defending her ideals
… and the skills to stand up for them.
To never have to be afraid you’re not good enough…
I want to be capable of it, too.
But…
I want to do it my way. )
LANCELOT :
Is everything alright, Galahad?
GALAHAD :
Yes!
BORS :
I’ve got the sword!
Let’s go while we still can!
I don’t want to stay here to see whether it’ll get up!
GAWAIN :
…
Very well, listen to me.
Palamedes and I will handle this.
I trust the two of you to go around as discreetly as you can and grab the lance.
Take your swords, but…
…everything is going to be fine, understand?
MORDRED :
Gawain…
GAWAIN :
Believe in yourselves.
You’re at the very beginning of your legends.
So, be⎯
PALAMEDES :
WATCH OUT!
GAWAIN :
GO!
PERCIVAL :
I’ve got it⎯
MORDRED :
PERCIVAL!
BORS :
You did amazing.
Good job! I’m honored to be on this quest with the two of you.
GALAHAD :
Bors, please…
BORS :
I think you’re definitely ready to become a knight!
It’s not my first time telling you so, I know,
but you seem…unsure, like you’re still indecisive.
GALAHAD :
…
BORS : Arthur will no doubt be overjoyed to have you at the Round Table and⎯
GALAHAD :
Oh, you know, Bors…
… I don’t feel ready yet.
I think I still have much to learn, and, well,
we all saw I can’t always make the right call on the spot just yet, haha!
BORS :
Are you sure, honey?
GALAHAD :
Yes, I promise!
BORS :
Well, I don’t mind keeping you under my wing for a little while longer…
But you know, you should go on quests with⎯
LANCELOT :
She’s right.
A knight’s title is not to be taken lightly.
At least, it shouldn’t be.
She’ll be more useful where she is right now.
BORS :
Lancelot…
… I think you’re being unfair.
I’ve got better insight on her talents than you do,
and believe me when I say she has everything it takes to be an excellent knight.
LANCELOT :
Far be it from me to doubt you, Bors, but
you may be biased by your fondness for her, and your situation.
BORS :
…
My situation?
LANCELOT :
…
All I’m saying is that you may not be looking at this objectively.
BORS :
Oh, but you are?
How surprising.
Considering you’re never around and never supervise her training
when you should.
[ galahad catches him by the sleeve. ]
…
Forget it, I⎯
LANCELOT :
No, Bors.
By all means,
go ahead.
It seems we need this conversation after all.
ROUND TABLE TRIVIA
Druids keep traditions and beliefs alive, namely the symbolic meaning of animals, which is a matter of great importance. Here are a few examples :
The horse : the most precious animal, representing nobility, good fortune and power.
Its symbolism changes depending on the color of its coat : white horses are a sign of great spirituality, while black horses are a harbinger of death.
The boar : symbol of the druids, it also represents invincibility and wealth.
The bear : symbol of warriors, and by the same reasoning, knights. It represents strength, bravery and compassion.
The name ‘Arthur” comes from the Proto-Celtic “Artos”, which means “bear”.
The stag : divine symbol of Cernunnos, the antlered god, the stag represents fertility, transformation, magic and all things tied to the Otherworld.
