Tropes
Arthurian Legend; Shrouded In Myth
Story Basics
- Son of a previous great-but-flawed king who failed, tragically, to unite the kingdoms, before being murdered
- Jon was carried off by [Druid] and hidden with a foster family, raised as a normal kid
- Jon accidentally identified as king—something to do with the Sword ("Sword in the Tree"?)
- Jon leads the Genericans against the Northraiders and drives them out of Imperia; declared king
- The Golden Age: Castle Royal built; the Capital founded; Knights of the Ring formed (Ring-Table, &c.); Jon married
- Quest for the Holy Artifact
- Treachery involving the queen
- Final battle, and Jon's death
Notes
- King Jon the Great = King Arthur
- Holy Artifact = Holy Grail
- Sword of Kings = Excalibur
- Knights of the Ring = Knights of the Round Table
- Each wore a ring to signify membership
- The Ring Table (round table w/ "hole" in the middle)
- Castle Royal = Camelot
- [Druid] = Merlin—maybe still alive?
