Knighted by king Arthur, Sir Lancelot
became one of the most legendary celebrities of the "Round Table".
Queen
Guinevere was his lady when he swore
his vows as a knight. Lancelot continued his knight adventures conquering
the castle of the "Pitiful Guard" and he disclosed his origins
as "Lancelot du Lac", son of the brave and generous king "Ban
Benoic", who had fought loyally at the side of king Arthur and
had lost his kingdom, sending his son Lancelot in the company of the
"Lady of the Lake", to be knighted at the court of king Arthur.
His love affair with queen
Guinevere led
him to fight against all the knights of the Round Table who wanted to
save their lord's honor. After defeating one by one, Lancelot admitted
his disloyalty to the king, going to a monastery to do penance and pay
for his misdeed.
Before he died, the Lady of the Lake came
to help him and they both disappeared forever in the lake, thus
honoring
his name "Lancelot du Lac".
