Stone Man
There is only one rule that it met with a cruel punishment from King Arthur. This law has been in place for many years before the King's hair greyed and before the lines marred the King's face. The rule was told to be set after the great battle of Camelot, when the evading armies of nearby countries siege war against the newly crowned king. While the King is well loved by his people and most of his rules are just and fair the one that everyone knows not to break is 'Never touch the stone statue in the west courtyard.' The west courtyard is where the majority of the great battle was taken place and where the stone man stands forever planted in the same spot, his hand outreached, eyes wide open, and if you look close enough on his face your see tiny stone tears. He would be a young man if he were real, barely out of boyhood. There are two characteristics of the stone man that puzzle the castle children, the stone man's ear which the children say are on the little large side and that the man is wearing clothing of an peasant and is wearing a neckerchief. There are always purple flowers left at the stone man's feet by the Queen and if you're lucky to get close enough you see a small flower the stone man's neckerchief. During the day you might catch the King sitting next to the stone man, glancing every so often with sad eyes and if you are really quiet on the air you will hear a soft 'idiot." If you are walking pass the courtyard at night you'll hear the muffled cries of your King and if you haven't fled the private matter your see the king sobbing at the feet of the stone man.
