Experts question the existence of King Arthur, the knights of the infamous Round Table, and other medieval legends portrayed in literature. But does it really matter if they truly lived?? King Arthur and the other legends have provided us with intriguing stories, inspired great works of art, and allowed our imaginations to experience the romance, mysticism, and morality of medieval times. Let your quest begin. </div> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="2a2a4f60.gif" border=0 width="420" height="246" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <bR> <bR> <div> About Camelot:</div> <bR> <div> Camelot was about love, honor, and nobility. Merlin and Arthur established the Round Table as a movement to set the example for man of what he could achieve when he recognized his connection to God, and when he let his natural qualities of nobility and honor guide his actions.</div> <bR> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="2a4dd540.gif" border=0 width="221" height="340" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <bR> <div> Camelot was love:</div> <bR> <div> Camelot was love. All of the knights adored their king and queen. Merlin was greatly loved and admired. Great comraderie existed among the knights. Even the great sword Excalibur was about love. When Excalibur was forged, Merlin arranged a special ceremony where Jesus and St. Michael appeared and placed their hands in the molten metal, thus permanently imbuing it with their energies of love. This gave Excalibur its famous powers. For when someone held Excalibur in their hands, they were enveloped with love. When enveloped in love, you cannot be harmed. This is only one of the messages which Merlin seeks to rekindle within us: love is the greatest protection of all. </div> <bR> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="2a686140.gif" border=0 width="390" height="276" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="2a85ecc0.gif" border=0 width="350" height="460" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <bR> <bR> <div> The tragedy of two sets of soul mates:</div> <bR> <div> The tragedy of two sets of soul mates who could never be together. One set of soul mates was the king and his sister. The other was the king's best friend and the king's wife. Fate cast them into this difficult situation, quite possibly so that Camelot would end when it was supposed to end. Another tragedy was that Arthur's idealistic genius, which created the magic of Camelot and the Round Table Movement, did not know how to comprehend or defend against treachery. Believing that all around him shared his purity and idealism, he did not respond when his kingdom was threatened by the darker sides of men's ambitions. </div> <div> Arthur's destiny to bring Christianity to Britain:</div> <bR> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="2aac81a0.gif" border=0 width="200" height="282" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <bR> <bR> <div> It was Arthur's destiny to bring Christianity to Britain. This threatened the existing druid religion. To ease their concerns, Arthur promised to protect the druids. He promised them that they would always peacefully coexist with the Christian church. Ironically, years later when the church had lost its memory of Arthur the benefactor, church leaders mounted a campaign in Europe against Arthur because he protected the heathens (druids) from persecution. A large Christian army came to Britain, and in Arthur's 57th year, he and his knights and his movement were destroyed in a last dramatic battle. And Camelot was no more.</div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="2ac54020.gif" border=0 width="340" height="258" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <A HREF="id130.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="The Tower"><U><IMG SRC="7e45c410.gif" border=0 width="92" height="65" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></U></A></div> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
