Born of Arthur Pendragon and his beloved servant “Merlin”





King Arthur was believed to have been born between the 5th and 6th century. He was the first born son of King Uther Pendragon and heir to the throne. Uther Pendragon, who fell in love with Lady Igraine. They needed the help of Merlin, a powerful wizard, to have a baby. However when Arthur was born, his mother died; His father followed shortly. After this tragedy, young Arthur was sent to live with a Knight named Ector when he was still an infant. When he grew up, he found a gleaming sword stuck in a stone, one that he had heard about in many tales. He was told that the man who could pull it out was the true king and when he succeeded in pulling the sword out, he proved his merit as King and his right to the throne.

King Arthur was a legendary king in Great Britain. He lived in Camelot and owned a sword which people called Excalibur. He is a fabled ruler of Subroman Bratain who defended his kingdom from the Anglo-Saxonsand. He won several battles and had many homes. However, his favorite home was in Camelot. One of the most famous tales of King Arthur is one where he pulls Excalibur out of a stone, making him King of Britain

He built a strong castle. His knights met at a Round Table. They carried out acts of chivalry such as rescuing damsels in distress and fought against strange beasts. They also searched for a lost treasure, which they believed would cure all ills - this was the 'Quest for the Holy Grail'. Under the guidance of Merlin, Arthur had obtained a magical sword from The Lady Of The Lake.
