You don't think his worry over his wife is worth betraying her trust?

[camena]

The story said it was just curiosity, not worry.

And she loves him so she should get to choose what she does with that.

It's a story that changes depending on who's doing the telling. The crane wife.

I just find it interesting.

In Arthurian legend, the Siege Perilous (Welsh: Gwarchae Peryglus, also known as The Perilous Seat, Welsh: Sedd Peryglus) is a vacant seat at the Round Table reserved by Merlin for the knight who would one day be successful in the quest for the Holy Grail.

[camena]

Okay well that's how you told it, so.

Wait is this a new story now

[factoring]

from user: lemonmeringue

Yes.

Do you know the Arthurian Knights?

[camena]

Uhhh vaguely.

It's a bit hard to keep track of them, actually. Because things get added in and changed from century to century. Very few people agree on what is and isn't canon when it comes to this story.

The Knights of the Round Table are the legendary knights of the fellowship of King Arthur that first appeared in the Matter of Britain literature in the mid-12th century. The Knights are an order dedicated to ensuring the peace of Arthur's kingdom following an early warring period, entrusted in later years to undergo a mystical quest for the Holy Grail. The Round Table at which they meet is a symbol of the equality of its members, who range from sovereign royals to minor nobles.

[camena]

Sure, okay. With you so far.

The number of the Knights of the Round Table (including King Arthur) and their names vary greatly between the versions published by different writers. The figure may range from a dozen to as many as 1,600.

I think that might be too many knights for one table.

[camena]

So it's like a metaphorical table. That seems like it would be harder in the days before email and cell phones.

Something like that, I assume. 13 seems like a good number for knights around a physical table.

By the end of Arthurian prose cycles (including the seminal Le Morte d'Arthur), the Round Table splits up into groups of warring factions following the revelation of Lancelot's adultery with King Arthur's wife, Queen Guinevere. This is the part that most people know.

[camena]

Okay...

I like approximately half the knights I know.

[camena]

You know a lot of knights? I don't know like a single one.

Not all of them personally, but a few.

[camena]

I don't know how any other worlds work so don't laugh at me if this is a dumb question but like

how?

They're from the Digital World, and there are 13 Royal Knights that protect it. I happened to meet some of them.

[camena]

I think history diverged somewhat between our worlds. Like really early on.

from username turntechGodhead/davesprite

I think that's very possible. Your world also has ghosts.

[Kyoko's 2 truths and 1 lie said ghosts were real where she lived.]

[camena]

[ hm... ]

Technically not ghosts.

from username: mrroboto

Oh? What are they?

[camena]

Souls trapped in their last moments before death, outside of time in a nuclear void rift.

[factoring]

from username: antichristianity

That's much worse. Nuclear void rift?

[camena]

I don't have all the details, but something to do with... I think the... engine? of a military submarine that got shot down.

from username alphamom:

... I don't get it, but I don't know that much about military or submarines.
