[first lines]
Come on. [While Sir Lionel is helping Lady Juliana getting off of her horse, is standing on her horse.] Father! [As she jumps into her father's arms, they roll down onto a sandy beach hill.] Father, do you really have to go?
Sir Lionel I’m afraid I must, Kayley. You know The King’s Knights will be here soon.
Tell me again why you became a knight.
LJ Lady Juliana
Kayley, you’ve heard it a thousand times!
Sir Lionel Oh, but it’s fine dear. Well, my daughter, before you were born, the land was dark and treacherous. [draws three circles in the sand with his finger] The people stood divided, brother fighting brother. [We go to a flashback, where at three stone pillars holding the magic sword, Excalibur.] The only hope for peace was in the legend of Excalibur, for it was said that only the true king could pull the magical sword from its stone and unite the people. Many tried, all failed. [Everybody tries to pull out Excalibur, but to no avail, gave up] Then, on the very day you were born, [A young man emerges from the crowd] an unexpected hero stepped forth, his name was Arthur, [Arthur pulls out Excalibur, much to everybody's amazement] and he was that true king. With Excalibur at his side he led us out of the darkness [Years pass by, as a castle is being constructed] and together we built the greatest kingdom on Earth, [Everybody helped build a kingdom] everyone rejoiced. [All of Camelot's residents danced and formed the three interlocked rings, showing union and Kayley is dancing inside a drawn circle, where she is dreaming about Camelot]
Sir Lionel [shows Kayley the shield representing the three rings]
And so these three rings represent the unity of our people. As a knight, I took an oath to protect Camelot, King Arthur, and Excalibur.
Sir Lionel I must go now, Kayley. The king has summoned his knights for a special day in Camelot. [kisses Lady Juliana and begins to ride off] Goodbye.
I’m coming with you daddy!
Sir Lionel Yes, when you are old enough, Kayley. I will take you to Camelot. I promise. I love you.
One day, I will be a knight, like father.
Sir Lionel Let’s go!
[singing]
It's been ten years we celebrate, All that made our kingdom great, Liberty and justice for all, Each of us we now divide, for equal shares our countryside, promising equality for all we reside!
KO Knights of the Round Table
United we stand, now and forever, in truth, divided we fall. Hand upon hand, brother to brother, no one shall be greater than all.
Liberty – Justice – Trust
Freedom – Peace – Honor
Goodness – Strength – Valor
ME!!! [non singing] Charming sing along. Now, let's get down to business. I waited a long time for this day. What about my new land!
Sir Ruber. Always thinking of yourself. As knights of the round table, our obligation is to the people, not to ourselves. The land will be divided according to each person’s needs.
Then I need more than everyone. I wouldn't have supported you all these years if I thought you were running a charity.
Sir Lionel The King has decided!
Then it's time for the new king, and I vote for me.
Sir Lionel I will not serve a false king.
Then serve... A DEAD ONE!
Kayley, I must tell you, I knew your father.
I used to live in Camelot. [We go to a flashback at Garrett who is younger and works in the stable] I was a stable boy, but I dreamt of becoming a knight. [Later the fire had broke out in one of the stables] One evening, there was a fire. [Garrett opens up the stable doors to free the horses] I rushed to save the horses but, Well. [A Horse accidentally hits Garrett in the eyes, making him fall to the ground in pain] I was hurt. [Garrett tries to see what's happened, but his vision is blurry] At first, all I could see were shapes, then shadows. Finally, my world went black. [Garrett's vision blacks out. In the morning he tries to find himself around when Sir Lionel sees him and grabs a stick] After I lost my sight [Sir Lionel passes Garrett the stick and teaches him the skills] Your father was the only one who still believed in me. He taught me that a knight's strength comes from his heart [Merlin and Ayden watch as Sir Lionel is teaching him] and his loyalty to the Oath of Camelot.
Sir Lionel United we stand.
Any hope I had of becoming a knight, died with him.
I felt that way too, but I knew he would never want me to give up. He wouldn't want you to give up either. You're as good as any knight in Camelot.
