After many great battles and a huge victory at Mount Badon the Saxons’ advance was halted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArthur’s base was at a place called Camelot where he built a strong castle. His knights met at a Round Table. They carried out acts of chivalry such as rescuing damsels in distress and fought against strange beasts. They also searched for a lost treasure, which they believed would cure all ills – this was the ‘Quest for the Holy Grail’.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnder the guidance of Merlin, Arthur had obtained a magical sword from The Lady Of The Lake. This sword was called ‘Excalibur” and with this weapon he vanquished many foes. Queen Guinevere, Arthur’s beautiful wife brought romance to the story while his equally beautiful half sister Morgan le Fay added a dark side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnfortunately, as peace settled over the country things turned sour within the court of Camelot and civil war broke out. In the final battle at Camlan both Arthur and Mordred, Arthur’s traitorous nephew, were mortally wounded. Arthur was set upon a boat and floated down river to the isle of Avalon. Here his wounds were treated by three mysterious maidens. His body was never found and many say that he rests under a hill with all his knights – ready to ride forth and save the country again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBerkeley Chess have been able to recreate the mysticism and magic of the court of King Arthur with this stunning chess set.
