Takeru Nezaki wanted to write side stories about Sir Renbarr's journey from the Roch Kingdom.

In the King Arthur legend, Nimue falls in love with Sir Pelleas. Sir Pelleas asks Sir Gawain to get in touch with a lady named Ettarde, but Gawain makes Ettarde his own. Sir Pelleas wandered off with full of sadness, but in the meantime, he met the Lady of the Lake Nimue. In other words, Renbarr is regarded as Pelleas. The author was planning to write a side story about the activity of Nimu with Renbarr. And Gawain has a devilish episode, but in *Fate* he is a Knight of the Sun and a good young man.
