Quotes
- [Reprimanding Ruber who is demanding more land, making him selfish] Sir Ruber, always thinking of yourself. As knights of the round table, our obligation is to the people, not to ourselves. The lands will be divided according to each person's needs.
- [giving an eulogy of Sir Lionel, who was murdered by Ruber from his violent rampage] Sir Lionel, was our most, trusted knight. And also, my dear, dear friend. We will always remember how we bravely upheld the ideals of Camelot.
- In the ten years since Sir Lionel's death, equality, and freedom, have spread throughout the lands. Excalibur, has given us the strength to stand together against all injustice. [the knights applaud] Camelot, has prospered beyond our greatest dreams- [Arthur was suddenly cut short when an Griffin burst in from above.]
- [to Ruber, who is trying to kill him with Excalibur; now bonded to his arm] I may not survive, but you'll never destroy the ideals of Camelot!
- [Arthur gratefully knights Kayley and Garrett for their bravery] I dub thee, Sir Garrett, and I dub thee, Lady Kayley. Thank you for saving Camelot. You have reminded us that the kingdom's strength is not based on the strength of the king, but the strength of the people. For this day forward, you will both sit as Knights of the Round Table.
