Meet Lancelot

This picture belongs HERE.Usually in Arthurian Legend Lancelot is easy to figure out. He loves his King, his King's woman, and his "pure" ideals about how a knight should be. My Lancelot however, is not that easy to figure out. If you haven't figured it out yet, my Lance has one motivation: Gwen. He lives and breathes for her and without her he is nothing.
Fast forward 1500 years and image living your life always at arms length from the one you love. How bitter would you be? Now Lance is a bit more understandable. He isn't so much of a villan as a person driven mad by the longings for something he knows he needs but can never seem to get.
Lancelot is my least favorite character in Arthurian legend, next being Gwen. Both of them betrayed Arthur and even as an adult who has been reading these stories for 15 years, I can't forgive them. Lancelot and Gwen's book with be up next in the Avalon series, titled: Betrayal's Redemption.
