After Jesus beamed out, Galahad healed Evelake, pretty much as an afterthought. Evelake departed to join the white monks, Nacien’s religious order, which is funny, because he was dead. It’s yet another Malory continuity error. The various Grail-seeking knights would … Continue reading →
With Sir Launcelot’s personal Quest for the Holy Grail complete, Malory turns his attention back to Sir Galahad, the new hotness. After departing from Launcelot, Galahad quickly abandoned his new friend the mysterious knight in shining white armor. He rode … Continue reading →

A couple of days of travel after visiting the abbot with the bizarre interpretations of visions Bors didn’t actually have, our man Bors reached a jousting tournament! It’d been too long since Malory threw one in, I suppose. (JOUSTING TOURNAMENT … Continue reading →
