In Response To: Re: 10 Greatest Swords of All Time (Bry)


: I wonder though, is the last one Excalibur, or is it the Sword in the Stone?
: Some versions of the legend have them as one and the same, others as two
: separate swords.

I prefer this version:

King Arthur: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. That is why I am your king.

Peasant: Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

Arthur: Be quiet!

Peasant: You can't expect to wield supreme power just 'cause some watery tart threw a sword at you!
