Sword Of The Valiant: The Legend Of Sir Gawain And The Green Knight Page #4

Synopsis: Gawain was a squire in King Arthur's court when the Green Knight burst in and offered to play a game with a brave knight. No knights stand to defend their king's honor. Except for the valiant Gawain. After being quickly knighted Gawain plays the game, but learns that it's all a trick, and he has lost. But the Green Knight shows mercy, letting Gawain grow a year older before having to face the consequences. Gawain journeys across the land, learning about life, saving damsels, and solving the Green Knight's riddle.

The kingdom

must have a guardian.

I'm beginning to understand now.

Yes, I see it clearly now.

That's why the knight

has not been found.

You're hiding him, aren't you?

- Admit it!

- No!

Oh, you do not understand.

I will have this pretty

head of yours for this!

I am the knight you seek!

For her sake,

I submit myself to your mercy.

Withdraw!

All is well here.

I fought your lord fairly.

I only wanted to enter Lyonesse.

I believe you mean what you say.

He is indeed

a noble youth, huh?

Yes. I think he is.

Yes. Hmm?

Powerful shoulders.

A bit long in the flank, but

well put together for all that.

There is good breeding here.

I wonder

if his teeth are sound.

Spirited, too.

I like a touch of fire

in a man, or beast.

Forgive me child,

I misjudged your purpose.

I understand now that you

sheltered this valiant knight...

for the highest of motives...

the welfare

of our land of Lyonesse.

Yes, of course.

Who better to be

the new guardian of the kingdom?

After all, he has already

proved himself in battle.

And by the look of him, I can

see him bring the same fire...

to the guardian's other duties.

I will call a meeting

of the royal council tonight...

and then summon my bishops...

as soon as my lord is buried.

My lady...

forgive me for having

broken into your mourning...

with my plans for Gawain.

Mourning? Why should I mourn?

My husband was a terrible man.

From our wedding night...

he turned

to a most cruel tyrant.

And the drinking!

And the wenching!

Oh! If only you could know

how much I suffered...

all these years.

But now

everything will be different.

There will be a new champion

to protect the kingdom...

and be my husband.

Sweet mother of God.

What have I done?

I just wanted you

to stay in Lyonesse.

But all I've done is harm.

For now you must go.

You don't want to come with me?

I do, but as I knew

I must save you...

so I know now

I must lose you again.

Not even the magic in my ring

can alter this.

Listen to me, Linet.

We have love,

and that's stronger than magic.

Only love can bend fate.

And I love you.

And I love you.

I've always loved you.

I think they want us to stay!

Let's go.

- Hold the man!

- Quick! Over this way!

- There he is.

- Go.

Go on.

Quickly!

This way!

Keep back!

- Linet!

- Grab her! Come on!

- No!

- No!

Help!

Help!

I'll be with you!

Let go! No! Let go!

Quick!

In there.

Good-bye.

Stay there!

Break it down!

- Come on!

- Come on! Break in!

They...

They shall not leave

the kingdom alive!

Hey!

There is the tower.

I'm sure they won't find us.

Follow me.

- They're over there!

- Another one?

Gawain, help!

- Where are you taking me?
