Synopsis
Val's ships finally arrive on the shores of Thule, only to be met by Cynan's son Dylan and his army. But the rightful Prince of Thule and his troops, under the protection of the ship's wooden bulwarks, are at a great advantage and soon defeat Dylan's unprotected enemy. Dylan is captured and brought to the gates of the castle, but his Cynan will not surrender, even if it means Dylan's life.
While he is planning his subversive attack on Cynan, Val gets what he believes is a great boost to his mission...King Willem, having waited for his son to make the momentous decision on his own, has followed the armada and will join Valiant in the liberation of his kingdom.
But father and son do not see eye-to-eye on how to remove Cynan from Willem's castle. Going against Valiant's plans, Willem steals into the castle through a secret passage. Cynan, though, discovered the passage long ago and has been guarding it heavily. Willem is easily captured. Valiant is now in a precarious position: an attack on Cynan will probably cost his father's life.
With Merlin's help, the Camelot armada with all its troops appears to have fled Thule. Val, seemingly left behind, comes to the castle gate to trade Dylan for his fathers release before himself leaving Thule. Cynan agrees, but then turns around and captures Val. But our Prince's plan is at that moment taking place. Arn and Rowanne have led the secretly hidden troops and positioned themselves for the attack. Arn has diverted the water supply away from the castle so Rowanne's flaming arrows at the castle cannot be extinguished. Along with an advancing army, Cynan is unable to protect his stolen domain and the long awaited liberation of Thule is successful.
After a tearful farewell, Valiant leaves his father on his rightful throne and returns to Camelot, to an unknown but brightly shining future.
