CHARACTERS:
Silent Knight; Lady Celia
PLOT:
The Silent Knight receives word that a spell has enchanted the Knights of the Round Table. Only a blast from Arthur's battle trumpet can awaken them. The Silent Knight meets the challenge and is able to sound the trumpet which Merlin has filled with sand. When it sounds, the knights begin laughing. They feigned sleep in order to lure the Silent Knight to the castle.
The Silent Knight is then forced to meet the challenge to determine which is the greatest knight in the land. Instead of choosing one opponent, the Silent Knight challenges both Lancelot and Galahad. On the dueling field both knights attack him simultaneously. The Silent Knight uses their own zeal against them and forces them to defeat each other instead of him. In so doing, the Silent Knight earns the continuing admiration of Celia.
