*491
A dark and eventful year. My cousin was kidnapped while out hunting. My friends dueled that stuck up xenophobic knight Sir Lycus while I drank mead and watched with Prince Madoc. I rode out with the crew to rescue our cousins from a jerkass knight Sir Blaines in the next county over. Humiliated them which means surely that is the last we'll see of those knaves. King Uther sent the knights to the battle of Terrabil with [[Madoc|Prince Madoc]]. Madoc was mortally wounded while fighting Duke Gorlois. I held him as he died and am SAD. Before he passed he gave me a map and made me swear "not to let him put a crown on her". I found his secret wife and child and took them into my household, claiming them as cousins needing aid. We had to play the cursed Ballad of Sword Lake ''yet again'' at court. Pretending everything is normal is hard when your friend is dead.
*492
Court in Tintagel. We witnessed the court weddings of [[Ygraine|Ygraine's]] daughters to northern kings ([[Lot]] and the other guy). Then while on patrol, that snake Merlin shows his face and my companions decide to help him. He betrayed us all, and we were tried for treason against the king for "helping Merlin steal Uther's baby". At the trial some of Uther's religious advisors correctly place the blame on Merlin, though their reasoning is suspect. Because of this, our service to the realm, and Roderick putting his honor on the line, we are cleared of all charges. Immediately after, we must needs rush back to Salisbury because Silchester knights are attacking our county! We arrive in time to mount a serious defense, which was unexpected to our enemies it seems. Thanks to the cunning of [[Eithne|Dame Eithne]] we break their line and I am able to rush through their archers to face [[Blains|Sir Blains]] directly. In a rare show of honor he agrees to face me personally and his guard stands down. I beat him handily and we capture the remainder of his forces, delivering them to Earl Roderick in Sarum. After utterly humiliating them a second time, surely this is the last we'll see of those knaves.
