There's more to Gareth's story in the Morte than I'm going to get to.

Arthur who Beaumains really is. There's a grand tournament where
But I didn't review the whole tale before I started writing it, and I led into the flashback with Arthur and Guenevere receiving "Beaumains" at Camelot a week after he'd left, instead of Gareth spending a year away. I wrote myself into that corner and I'm stuck in it. On the other hand, the way things've played out, Gareth's flashback will last exactly from June 1 till June 30, and that's nice and tidy. It gives me a chance to get to the other major plotline from the sources that's coming up this summer. Say, maybe I ought to review that one before I start serializing it. |
