El magnífico Merlín, los caballeros de la Mesa Redonda que luchan con la espada y los valientes reyes son sólo algunas de las razones por las que no nos cansamos de la narrativa de la Leyenda Artúrica en nuestros juegos.
CUENTOS LEGENDARIOS CONTADOS DE NUEVO
Cuando se trata de la Leyenda Artúrica, hay una gran cantidad de historias en las que profundizar y, sin importar cuántas veces se cuenten, se vuelvan a contar y se repitan, siguen manteniéndonos en vilo.
Caballeros que luchan con espadas, reyes valientes y reinos encantados, por no hablar de algunas de las mejores historias de amor jamás contadas, sólo tienes que ir al cine para presenciar una epopeya del Rey Arturo o encender la televisión para ver una serie basada en Merlín, uno de los magos más famosos que existen (te vemos Gandalf y Dumbledore, tú también estás ahí arriba).
PERSONAJES CLÁSICOS REVIVIDOS
One of the most famous kings in the world of fiction, King Arthur will always be known as the man worthy of pulling the sword from the stone and claiming the holy grail. And with The Sword and the Grail in hand, King Arthur is crowned to rule Camelot and protect the Diamonds of the Realm alongside his Queen, Guinevere. Maybe we'll save the epic love triangle between himself, Queen Guinevere and Sir Lancelot for another day.
Speaking of, Sir Lancelot has to be one of the most famous knights of the round table, right? Known for his chivalry, courage and elite sword-fighting skills. And when he wasn’t trying to woo the Queen you could find him in other kingdoms trying to win the hearts of other princesses, much like Princess Elaine in 15 Crystal Roses: A Tale of Love. Although according to legends this pair wasn't quite as loved up as they seem...
Love and magic play a huge part in our Arthurian Legend series, and when we think of magic we of course think, Merlin. When we picture Merlin, we see a bearded wizard with a brow furrowed with wisdom, but this wasn’t always the case. In his youth as a cocky young druid, Merlin wasn’t alone casting spells in his tower, oh no, he had quite the friendship with Vivian, better known as The Lady of the Lake. Although there may have been more than friendship between this mystical pair, their stories eventually take on different chapters.
But Vivian wasn’t the only woman in Merlin’s life, there was his apprentice, sister of the King, Morgana. Feisty and powerful, Morgana’s narrative takes a darker route as she succumbs to jealousy after witnessing the crowning of her brother King Arthur. A coldness seizes her, turning her heart to ice which even her former mentor and friend cannot thaw.
Like other works of fiction, Arthurian Legend isn’t shy of villains, Morgana is just one of them. But one of the most famous has to be The Green Knight, a perplexing character known for his green aesthetic and ghostly appearance. A piece of friendly advice? If he challenges you to a duel, turn the other way.
