I apologise for the delay in posting. I babysitted my baby niece in the morning, then baked a cake, and before I knew it, there was no more time to scan my pages, edit the images, upload them to Photobucket and assemble a post...

Another thing I have been doing this week is to prepare a Gawain-related Super Seekrit project :-). You won't see the results for another few months, though. Like everything I do, it requires a lot of time and patience, but I'm very excited about it.

-Okay, have some more pages. Concrit is welcome, as always.


What went before
The Kings of Britain are debating Uther's succession. Lot and Uriens both lay claim to the throne, as they are both married to one of Uther's adopted daughters. The Irish and the British are not mincing words. This cannot end well!

Ha! I love this week's quote.

I second cabepfir's comments about Lot's gestures. He's very melodramatic.

I wonder who's going to pull the sword out. Who will it be? :-) I have to say kudos to you, finding a new and interesting way to build up to something so iconic.

I thought about picking a serious, Arthurian quote, but I couldn't resist Asterix :P. Oh, those pugnacious Celts...

Thank you for the compliment! To me it's as simple as looking at Arthur and Merlin from the point of view of their opponents. You know that when the sword gets pulled from the stone, there are some kings who side with Arthur and some who don't. So all I do is wonder where they all came from. As far as plotting stories goes, that's really the only thing I'm reasonably good at XD.
