Okay so I’ve been on a bit of a Arthurian lore kick lately. And you know who’s badass?
Dame Ragnelle.
Who’s Ragnelle? Sir Gawaine’s wife, which is pretty awesome because well Gawaine is pretty awesome. But the best part about their marriage and elevates Ragnelle to true BAMF status is that she wasn’t even beautiful when they married. She was like a hag(some kind of spell) and King Arthur had to answer this riddle ‘What do women truly want?’ and Ragnelle (who remember is a hag) was like ‘I’ll tell you if you let me marry Sir Gawaine’. And Gawaine is down with that because well he’s a knight and Arthur is his king. And the answer Ragnelle gives Arthur is that what women really want is the right to make their own decisions.
Which is also how her spell gets broken when Gawaine grants her the right to choose which part of the day she will be in hag form and which part she’ll be in lovely lady form. (Which also kudos to Gawain for doing that instead of being a sexist twit which was kinda popular at the time lets be real).
Also she has this brother who’s trying to regain his family’s property or something while Ragnelle just uses her wits to marry up socially because BAMF.
Reblogging this in honour of Gawain Month, Ragnelle is the awesome.
The best version of Beauty and the Beast is Gawain and Ragnelle

Nightshade Arthur and his friends seek out Vortigern’s weaknesses - and find his most prominent ones in the form of his second wife and toddler son. The young Queen finds her loyalties conflicted as she learns of her husband’s dark deeds, while Arthur finds himself falling for the group’s street-smart informant.

“The cubs shall awake and shall roar loud, and leaving the woods, shall seek their prey within the walls of the cities” -Prophecy of Merlin
The above prophecy seemed fulfilled when in 1173, the young princes, Henry, Richard, and Geoffrey, led a rebellion against their father, Henry II of England, supported by their mother, Eleanor of Aquitaine, and Louis VII of France, disgruntled by what they saw as their father’s hoarding of power. Despite the formidable enemies arrayed against him, King Henry managed to crush the revolt and bring his sons to grudging submission. The next sixteen years of his reign, however, would be marked by conflict with and among his sons. The untimely deaths of Young Henry in 1183 and Geoffrey in 1186 did little to alleviate the situation. The now-eldest son, Richard, once more took up arms against his father in order to confirm his position as heir and resist King Henry’s favoritism of his younger brother, John. This final rebellion would end with Henry II’s death, receiving one last blow on his deathbed as he learned that his beloved John had too finally betrayed him.
there was a spot for one brief shining moment that was known as Camelot:
CAMELOT
Camelot is a castle and court associated with the legendary King Arthur. Absent in the early Arthurian material, Camelot first appeared in 12th-century French romances and, after the Lancelot-Grail cycle, eventually came to be described as the fantastic capital of Arthur’s realm and a symbol of the Arthurian world. The stories locate it somewhere in Great Britain and sometimes associate it with real cities, though more usually its precise location is not revealed. Most scholars regard it as being entirely fictional, its geography being perfect for chivalric romance writers.

ARTHUR PENDRAGON & GUINEVERE
According to Geoffrey of Monmouth, Guinevere is descended from a noble family of Romans and is “the loveliest woman in all the island”. In later romances she is the daughter of Leodegrance, previous owner of the Round Table, which she brings, together with one hundred knights, as her dowry when she marries Arthur.
