The Once and Future King Book 3, Chapter 31 Summary

  • And still no news has returned to Camelot about Lancelot, even though—by now—almost everyone else (who isn't dead) has trickled in.
  • Lots of these guys claim to have seen Lancelot along their adventures, but they must be making stuff up. Because they claim they've seen Lancelot smacked around and defeated, which can't possibly be true, right?
  • There are also rumors that Lancelot has died on the quest, and had his neck broken by his own son. Wow.
  • After everyone pretty much gave him up for dead, Lancelot shows up during a rainstorm. And—this is really weird—people must have known he was coming because a huge crowd is out waiting for him.
  • Lancelot brings news that the Holy Grail has been found by Galahad, Percivale, and Bors. Bors will be coming home soon, but the other two—and the Grail—will not.
