description: Raised by the hermit Trevisant, who is able to foretell the future, Terence finds Gawain eating one of his snared rabbits. During dinner with Trevisant, he predicts that Gawain will become known as the "Maiden's Knight" and will become part of the Round Table of King Arthur, with Terence as his squire. And off they go on funny adventures, including Gawain's first defeat of a foe when he is armed only with a stewpot. Terence, too, has his share of adventures as he attempts to learn about his parentage.
