THE GUARDIANS OF THE KING'S SWORD

The Great King Arthur of Camelot and Albion was dead.

The King's Great Sword, Excalibur, had to be protected. The Great Sword Excalibur was for Great King Arthur's hand only.

There were few that the Great Sword Excalibur would not corrupt with its immense power. There were only two choices as a Guardian for the Great Sword Excalibur. The Great King's direct line or the direct line of the Humble Blacksmith that forged the Great Sword.

The Great Warlock Emrys, a trusted member of the Great King Arthur's court, knew what must be done. He was the only one who knew of the Great Sword's humble beginning. The Great Warlock Emrys was the one that took it to the Great Dragon, Kilgharrah, to be burnished with the Magic of The Old Religion.

The Great King Arthur had no direct heirs.

The Humble Blacksmith however did have an heir. The Brave Knight Elyan, brother to Queen Guinevere, was the only son and heir of the Humble Blacksmith that forged the Great Sword Excalibur.

The Great Warlock Emrys entrusted the King's Great Sword, Excalibur, to the Brave Knight of Humble Birth. The Brave Knight of Humble Birth swore an Oath of Loyalty on the Great Sword Excalibur to protect it from those that would use it for evil. When the Brave Knight of Humble Birth was nearing his death, he entrusted it to his son and heir who also took an Oath of Loyalty on the Great Sword Excalibur to protect it. As was the tradition, the Oath of Loyalty was sworn on the Great Sword Excalibur from the days of Camelot, to be continued by every heir to follow. The Great Sword Excalibur must be protected at all cost. It was to never leave the heir of the direct line of the Humble Blacksmith until the True King's return.

The Great Warlock Emrys had cast a Spell of Return on the dying breath of the Great King Arthur. The Spell of Return was to return the Great King and the Queen that he truly loved. There were conditions that would have to be met to insure the identity of the True King and his Queen. Only a girl child from the Humble Blacksmith's direct line could become Arthur's Queen. This Spell of Return would unlock the memories of the True King and his Queen from their time as Camelot's Sovereigns. All that was required was True Love's Kiss.

The Great Warlock Emrys had one more request of this honored family. The Brave Knight and his descendants were to name their first girl child 'Guinevere' after the Great Queen that hailed from the Humble Blacksmith's line.

Only when the Great King and his Queen were reunited in marriage was the Great Sword Excalibur to be turned back to Arthur's hand. With the Great Sword Excalibur in the True King's possession, the Knights of the Round Table would gather once more. Once reassembled, the power and bravery of the Knights of the Round Table put to use once again to protect and serve all of Albion.

ALL HAIL THE GREAT KING ARTHUR PENDRAGON!

ALL HAIL QUEEN GUINEVERE OF CAMELOT!
