Our windmill was ruined. Our spirits were at their lowest. But, Napoleon seemed... triumphant.
Jessie Come on. We should leave while we still can. I'll get the others.
Susanna Tristan, I have nowhere to send this letter and no reason to believe you wish to receive it. I write it only for myself. And so I will hide it away along with all the things left unsaid and undone between us.
Susanna Forever turned out to be too long Tristan.
I don't know what to say. Tristan's always been wild. You love him for that.
Susannah Do I? Yeah, I suppose I do.
Susannah, he does love you.
Yes, though you might better remind him of that.
He's not here to defend himself.
No, he's not but I see you are here to defend him and what is his. Even though he's abandoned her and you. And I won't even speak of who else he abandoned.
Damn you, boy. Don't you blame my son for Samuel's death! Samuel chose to be a soldier and soldiers die. Sent to be slaughtered by the men in the government. Parasites like you! Damn and blast you! Damn you. [turns to Susannah] And damn you too!
Shut your mouth! You leave her out of this!
You get out of my house and off my land.
Why? Because I want to serve my country like you did? Or because, like you, I love a woman who doesn't love me? He used her and he deserted her. Your darling Tristan.
Susannah Alfred, don't, please.
I loved her! I love her still. And he stole her from me. If you want to know the truth of it he stole her from Samuel before the war.
God help me, I'll kill you.
Guinevere I only know one way to love my lord, and that is body and mind and soul.
Guinevere If there is any honor in you, promise me never to do that again.
I don't know about honor. But I promise you, I won't kiss you again till you ask me to.
[At a meeting of the Knights of the Round Table...]
May I congratulate the king on his forthcoming marriage. [points to the empty seat] I see my place hasn't been taken yet. [sets his sword down on the table] To think that I was once first among your knights.
You left this council of your own free will.
We each of us must follow our own road, my lord, and mine had further to go.
And where does your road take you, Malagant? To Lyonesse?
[innocently]
Lyonesse is my neighbor! I've offered the lady a treaty of friendship. I still await an answer.
Guinevere You call burning villages an act of friendship?
Oh yes, my lady. Since your honored father's death, your land has been more lawless by the day. Were you yourself not attacked on the road here?
Guinevere You know who attacked me.
I made it my business to know. The bandits have been hunted down. Justice has been done.
Guinevere [angrily]
What justice? You know no law higher than yourself!
[reading]
"Armed forces to be given access to all Lyonesse. Troops to assist in the enforcement of law in all Lyonesse." [to Guinevere] Do you want to sign this?
Guinevere I'll never sign it.
There's your answer. She says no.
She's very brave. Now she's to be married. So, is Lyonesse to come under the protection of Camelot?
Is Lyonesse in need of protection?
[scoffs]
Come, Arthur. I'm here to settle this business. We both know Lyonesse is too weak to stand alone. Let's say half each. The lesser gives way to the greater, and what nation could be greater than Camelot, the land of justice and the hope of mankind? Come. Your hand on it. We'll all live together as friends.
[to the rest of the council]
You all know me. You know I'm a man of my word. Don't make an enemy of me. I mean no harm to Camelot.
[rises]
You know the law we live by. And where is it written, "Beyond Camelot live lesser people, people too weak to protect themselves; let them die", hmm?
Other people live by other laws, Arthur. Or is the law of Camelot to rule the entire world?
There are laws that enslave men, and laws that set them free. Either what we hold to be right and good and true is right and good and true, for all mankind, under God, or we're just another robber tribe.
Your fine words are talking you out of peace and into war.
There's a peace that's only to be found on the other side of war. If that battle must come, I will fight it!
Sir Agravaine And I! [the other knights echo him]
