Synopsis

With the death of his father, Richard is named King of Northland. Guinevere and Arthur set off for the coronation. Valiant and Arn are sent to Bridgesford to deliver a message from Michael of Northland to Rowanne. Initially, Rowanne rejects Val's and Arn's overtures of friendship. When she discovers her niece and nephew have been taken hostage, and that the Duke of Lionsgate threatens Arthur's troops with catapult fire, she lends a hand in the fight. With Val and Am, Rowanne helps destroy the catapults and rout the Duke's men. Rowanne expresses her regret for breaking with King Arthur's ideals, and her hope is that she'll be accepted back among the ranks of Camelot.
