How it begins
You are King Arthur Pendragon of Britain, carrying nothing. You and your wife, Queen Guinevere, are in the entrance hall of your castle. There's huge tapestries on the walls, the door to the north, and the rest of the castle to the south. You want to go out drinking with Lance and the boys, but "Ginny, darling" flatly refuses to let you go.
