## History

### Birth of Arthur

Arthur's birth was the result of the union between King Uther Pendragon and Igraine, the wife of Goloris, the Duke of Cornwall. This event occurred following a conflict between the King and the Duke's armies, sparked by the Duke's departure from a feast without the King's consent. In his desperate moment, King Uther sought assistance from the wizard Merlin, who, albeit with a condition, agreed to aid him. Merlin decreed that any child born of this union must be entrusted to his care as part of the agreement.

With Merlin's assistance, Uther emerged victorious in battle and subsequently married Igraine, following what appeared to be the Duke's demise in the conflict. Nine months later, Queen Igraine gave birth to a son, whom they named Arthur. However, due to the King's earlier promise to turn over any children born of his union with Igraine to Merlin, Uther reluctantly handed over their only son to Merlin's care. This heart-wrenching separation forced Igraine to bid farewell to her child forever. Although Merlin reassured her that it was for the boy's own welfare, she never forgave him for this painful decision.

### Discovery of the King

In secret, Merlin arranged for the young prince to be raised at Sir Ector's castle, concealing his true identity even from Ector himself. There, Arthur grew up as the presumed bastard child of Sir Ector.

Meanwhile, the kingdom faced turmoil as King Uther Pendragon fell gravely ill and passed away shortly after giving away his only son. With no heir to the throne, England plunged into despair as rival dukes and lords vied for control. In this chaotic time, the nobles turned to Merlin to seek a solution.

Merlin, having ensured Arthur's safety, placed a large stone with an anvil atop it in a churchyard in Westminster, a region of London. Embedded in the anvil was a sword, a mysterious symbol of destiny waiting to be unraveled.

Merlin revealed that the sword embedded in the stone was imbued with magic, and only the rightful ruler of England could extract it. Nobles from distant lands attempted in vain to remove the sword, even the mightiest among them couldn't succeed. Over time, the sword was largely forgotten, and England's turmoil deepened.

It was only when Merlin brought Arthur to the Sword in the Stone that the destiny began to unfold. A crowd gathered in anticipation as Arthur grasped the sword and, to their astonishment, successfully freed it. The crowd erupted in joyous cheers, and Arthur was officially crowned as the new King of England, bringing hope and stability to the kingdom.

### Kingship of Arthur

Following his coronation, Arthur indeed demonstrated his unparalleled prowess as a warrior. As King, he skillfully repelled all hostile invaders from Britain, showcasing his remarkable leadership and combat abilities. However, Arthur's true strength lay in the wisdom he had acquired from his mentor, Merlin.

Under Merlin's guidance, Arthur had been schooled in the art of using his intellect rather than relying solely on brute force to overcome adversaries. He became a wise and just monarch, committed to protecting his people and never engaging in wrongful actions. Arthur's reign was marked by his commitment to justice and the well-being of his kingdom.

The people of Britain, finally relieved of their suffering, happily welcomed him as their new king. Not even the dukes and lords quarreled over the right to rule anymore, for Arthur had indeed brought the peace and prosperity that the kingdom had long awaited. Under his rule, laws were made with justice and mercy, and the people were treated fairly. He named his kingdom Camelot, and his coat of arms was the red dragon.

However, it was all good. Even if Igraine loved Uther, she love Goloris much more, coming back to his house she saw the duke alive and well with their children happy. One of the children was a witch that will later be trained by Merlin himelf, Morgan Le Fay. The Witch along her siblings were obsessed to have revenge against 'her' Arthur for the crimes his father had cause. Morgan's Sister Morgause had once came to Arthur's room and gained a child from him. This child was Mordred Predragon.
