My lords, I am reluctant to shed christian blood in a war against my own liege; and yet I do know that these lands have already suffered depredation in the wars between king Claudius and my father and uncle, King Ban and King Bors. Therefore I will next be sending a messenger to King Arthur and sue, for peace. For peace is always preferable to war.
Sir, you command knights of royal blood; you cannot expect them to remain meekly within the city walls. I pray you, let us encounter the enemy on the open field, and they will soon repent for the expedition.
My lord Sir Launcelot, is it wise to allow King Arthur to lay your land waste when sooner or later he'll oblige you to offer him battle
Dia: 3
Sir Modred, I will strike you down and have you beg for mercy!
Dia: 0
“Sir Launcelot, flower of the knighthood: I, Sir Gawain, son of King Lot of Orkney and of King Arthur’s sister, send you my greetings!“I am about to die; the cause of my death is the wound I received from you outside the city of Benwick; and I would make it known that my death was of my own seeking, that I was moved by the spirit of revenge and spite to provoke you to battle.“Therefore, Sir Launcelot, I beseech you to visit my tomb and offer what prayers you will on my behalf; and for myself, I am content to die at the hands of the noblest knight living.
