"Not as of yet," He said, with a dramatic sigh, "only the deepest love with the most wonderful of women will entice me into marrying," His face broke into a grin, "It would mean I need to find a woman who could match how wonderful I am... and I not sure one exists." He joked. Perhaps Galahad is more similar to his brother than he believes.

Perhaps. Or perhaps Lancelot is a time traveller and has seen the 1995 Pride and Prejudice adaptation on DVD and is channelling Elizabeth Bennet

"Are there no more volunteers than the three of us?" Galahad asked in disgust. "There are individuals in need of rescue, yet none of you have offered to aid them! What manner of knights are you?" he asked the knights seated in the hall. Anyone else remembering Dunk's "Are there no true knights?" speech before his Trial of Seven in The Hedge Knight? I'm hoping we'll get Lancelot or possibly Iseult a little later but I could throw in another NPC.

I haven't actually read the dunk and egg novellas.
The above just seemed like something Galahad would say in a situation that's affirming his opinions of the others.

Oh you should read them! I've not read the 3rd one because you can only get it in an anthology by a lot of different authors which I haven't come across in a library and don't particularly want to buy. I definitely will read it if the graphic novel comes out and/or it gets put into a combined volume with the others. The graphic novels of the first 2 are amazing though! Love them! I may have to reread them yet again now...
I agree with you though, it fits Galahad.

(So you are not going to attack the Bear that is about to maul you? I like your decision.) Gave me a laugh

Dina rubbed the druid girls back. "Looks like we are on our own then." She stated un-needed That's just a tad cold...

Galahad screamed in frustration, and smashed his stolen sword against the tower wall. He stood, alone, examining the tower for a few seconds before hurrying after his brother. This one made me laugh!

It reminded me of Alexander... in Alexander, when he needs to decide whether to help Parmenion or go after Darius.

Can't believe I missed this reference before! "Tom Malory can take the message," Arthur said, indicating his squire, riding a little distance away with his servant. //////////// Some time later, the druids were busy casting the spell. Arthur and Dinadan rode forward under a peace banner to meet with the representatives of the men of Cantium and the Saxon kingdoms. The two enemy representatives were mounted and accompanied with a herald who announced him. "King Pybba of Mercia and Lord Blamor of Cantium, cousin of King Vortimer." Arthur nudged Dinadan and whispered "Announce us."

Haha! yeah, I thought that would be fun.
TH White references the boy Malory at the end of The Once and Future King, so that's probably where I got the idea from.

I always liked seeing how 20th and 21st century authors reinterpreted older texts, especially Malory.
