    Inspired by the end of the Merlin series, the author imagines a much happier ending than the one in the series. Broken hearts, come and feel better by reading this alternative ending to the series!

  5. Does anyone know what language was carved into Excalibur?? I know what it's supposed to say, but I need to know what language it was engraved in. I can't find information about it anywhere online. Just the English translation, which is "Take me up," on one side, and "Cast me away," on the other.

    Perhaps Proto-Celtic?? Maybe written in Ogham? I found a partial dictionary for the language, but I can't find a couple of the words I need, or what order they're supposed to be in.

  6. The Bedd Arthur stones in the Preseli Hills, #Wales. Some see these stones as a prototype for Stonehenge - they overlook an outcrop called Carn Menyn, which has been suggested as a source of Stonehenge's bluestones. Local #folklore connects the site to King Arthur - Bedd Arthur means Arthur's Grave. #history #mythology #psychogeography #archaeology #ArthurianLegend

  13. How’s this for a premise: the knights of #KingArthur and the other characters from #Arthurianlegend never stopped watching over #England. Every time England is in danger, they return. In the near-future climate dystopia and political insanity of #PerilousTimes they are back, and trying to even make sense of the state of England is way too much. Laughing on every page so far. #Bookstodon #AmReading #books @bookstodon

  14. “The Fisher King, whose portrayal as an angler accounts for his title, is blighted by a wound that will not heal and, because of this injury, the land he rules wilts into a wasteland. Both he and the land will only become well when a knight asks the right question.”

    T. S. Eliot and the Holy Grail

    The Nobel Laureate drew on a centuries-old legend when he put the Fisher King in The Waste Land.

  15. "She didn’t wear a lot of rings these days, though. They got in the way of things like climbing trees. Which she could do one-handed, in a dress, while applying lipstick, thank you very much. Just because she looked girly didn’t mean she couldn’t do anything a boy could do."
