Reading Notes: King Arthur: Part B

Characters: King Arthur, Sir Bedivire, Sir Lancelot

King Arthur: Has been mortally wounded. wants to get rid of Excalibur

Sir Bedivire: Is crying because he thinks King Arthur is gonna die. Is kind of weak of heart.

Sir Lancelot: Is sad that he can not keep seeing his love affair because her husband died and she became a nun.

Plot: King Arthur has been mortally wounded and is actively dying on the battlefield. Sir Bedivire is there and crying over his dying body. King Arthur asks him to throw his magic sword, Excalibur, into the water. He agrees and takes the sword to the water. When he gets there, he looks at the sword and sees all of the gems and jewels. He thinks about how it would be a shame for it to be thrown into a lake, so he hides it away and returns to the King. The King knows he hasn't done it though because he asked him to describe what had happened when he threw it in. He tells Sir Bedivire to once again go and throw the sword into the water. He goes again, but again he is unable to throw it in. He again goes to Arthur and again he sends him back. Finally, he actually does ti and a hand reaches out and catches the sword and pulls it under. He tells the King what happened and then is told to take the King to the water. When they get there, there's a barge full of crying women and Sir Bedivire puts King Arthur in there. He later dies. The Queen learns of the King's death and runs away to become a nun and dies as one. Her affair lover, Sir Lancelot, tries to contact her, but she turns him away and Lancelot stops eating and eventually dies.

Setting: After a battle and over the course of a few years.

Things I can Change: I think the ending presented in this version of the story is really sad. I think I would try to find a way to make it a bit happier.

Introduction to Zeeshawn Beg

Hi! I'm Zeeshawn, a Microbiology major, med school hopeful, and computer enthusiast. I was born in Pakistan and my family immigrated to Oklahoma when I was just a couple months old. I still love to watch cricket. I can't see it live though because of the time zones it's always early in the morning. ("Wahab Stuns Hosts! | England vs Pakistan Match Highlights | ICC Cricket World Cup 2019" at youtube ) One of my favorite classes has been Chinese Literature. I had never really learned much about Chinese history, so this class really opened my eyes and helped me understand recent history. The book/story that affected me the most in that class was the Iron Child by Mo Yan. I've also been trying to learn to draw. The idea of being able to create something has really motivated me and especially being able to see great art anytime on the internet has helped fuel this. I've been using drawabox to learn the fundamentals and I feel like I've made some progress.

Week 6 Story: Hidden Voyage

( Orient Sweets by Shuhrenataxmedov ) After my many tragic ventures out at sea, from whale islands to Rocs dropping mighty boulders on our ships, I needed a change of pace. With my wealth having ballooned and my family secured, I looked to other parts of my life to fulfill myself. I have taken a liking to the sweets that they sell in the markets.

I knew that if I were to send a servant to fetch them for me, they would invariably inform her of my misdeeds, so I persevered to venture out on my own and in secret. I convinced my wife that I would be in the study and not to disturb me as I attended to my work. I knew that this would not work for long and I needed to be quick. As I walked to my office, I thought of various ways to escape onto the str
