grins I agree on the mythology also playing a large role in it and how he is perceived. And of course, I realize I also am looking on the story from a different perspective than someone from 400 years ago.
Jeez, I can’t believe I never realized that there are actually direct parallels between Joffrey and Mordred.
@Lys Yeah, it’s weird how much our society’s shifts in morals colors what we see as a hero. Mordred’s unnatural birth was (I assume) used as further evidence of his depravity at the time, but it’s easy for us to empathize with being villainized for something beyond your control.

Behavior wise or how they were born?
Couldn’t stop myself from thinking about this scene:

Born - although I guess behavior-wise, we’re generally not as riled up about the hot-button issue of usurpers nowadays.
In the mythology his successor was Constantine if I’m not mistaken. Regardless the situation with their magic bloodline is going to be very tricky with or without an legitimate heir.
Little bit of off topic question what is your ladies gents favorite interpretation of the mythology?
@Rogar what!? I didn’t know about that…because that’s what I named my fae cat lol because I know he’s going to be a constant by my side lol

So he kill some kids or he a Saint, you make compelling story for him being both. Christianity was really weird in the six century. Breton Celtic Christian. would hardly recognizable. Alot celtic and Breton culture was infused into along with some roman culture they pick up as well. The reason he not well known is because the French cut out his major deed and replace him with Lancelot. Which was Killing Mordred sons. Some version of old mythos done by the french have Lancelot placing him on the throne. He could be snuck into the game in how he was related to Arthur in many different weird way depending on who telling, he could his son in law to his nephew or great nephew.

For real. I like Arthur and I was still like “Bro, when you came up with this plan you didn’t maybe think all these farm animals could stay in the courtyard at least? BTW, if any of those sheep peed in my room I will smother you with a pillow. Just FYI.”

I don’t usually play stories like yours but when I decided to try it I was glad. I really love your story now and can’t wait for the next update! I love the characters especially Guenevere, Anthony, and Lancelot. The sudden sparks between Guen and Lance is so mind boggling in a good way, my reaction was completely shocked but I was wondering the whole time if its because of the friendship level or something else. I couldn’t stop reading the story! I love you story and thank you for taking the time to make it.

The worst thing for me is he 100% meant well. He probably thought it would nicer than the courtyard or a nearby pasture because who wants to sleep outside anyway? (sheep, Arthur, sheep want to sleep outside 
) Arthur’s my boy but if I had been one of the servants having to clean up after that I would have had to fight him, king or not.

Also, it is much better advertising for the sheep if they are right there instead of outside where the ambassadors can’t see them.
Regardless, since much of the BEG’s plan relies on the sheep being in the corridors, I have to assume the BEG (or his minions or whatever) put the idea into Arthur’s head. After all, if the sheep weren’t there, what would provide the distraction for stealing Guen’s hair or allow the recovery of the decoder amulet?

Too bad we can’t keep one of the sheep as a pet /reminder

Anything probably not needed they would use a normal spy or a doopelanger guard they just found the sheeps and used them
Who’s BEG? I don’t think I’ve heard that acronym.
Now I’m picturing Arthur having half the castle rebuilt to be sheep-accessible for his new BFF and the servants looking at him like 
as they imagine all the mess it’ll generate.

Sheep poop everywhere(assuming sheep can’t be house broken) at least we aren’t dealing with goats.

It was supposed to be BBEG…or Big Bad Evil Guy. Autocorrect didn’t like it, though…

I thought it was a pun on “Big Friendly Giant” that stood for “Big Evil Giant”.

If Arthur had brought goats into the castle not one of my Guens would ever have gotten over it. Goats might sometimes be cute and make awesome cheese but the mess they make.
That makes a lot of sense! Like Asura I thought BEG was meant to be BFG.
