Guinevere, in turn, willingly sacrificed her own life as a woman in order to preserve this ideal government. Though the king was actually a woman, she had married in order to maintain the pretense that she was a man and the image of a stable royal family. It was then that Sir Lancelot became attracted to her. They conversed with each other and came to recognize each other as friends and rely on the other. Sir Lancelot wishes to lessen the burden for his King, a wish that Guinevere also held. It was those words that began to trigger his insanity. When Sir Tristan left the castle saying King Arthur does not understand how others feel. Even after falling into a trap and being forced to face the enemy's blades with only his bare hands, he had proved victorious with his skilled fighting prowess using only an elm branch. He had many famous exploits, including once hiding his name and disguising himself to enter a horse race for the sake of a friend’s honor. He became a knight among the Round table and saw many battles. Before long, he began desiring a seat on the Round Table. Lancelot had fought together with the King in that battle, and for his accomplishments he was granted the honor of speaking with her as a friend and invited to Camelot as a guest. It proved how wrong he was, the requirement to battle day and night was not physical attributes but it was one who holds unwavering convictions. It carved a deep impression of the King when he saw the sight of a young boy riding on his horse, gallantly swinging her sword in a horde of invaders. He met the King as soon as he landed in Britain in the midst of battle. He began to compare himself with the King of Knights until he decided to travel to Britain to see the legendary king with his own eyes. He believed the King of Knights in Britain was pure nonsense. He had heard rumors of the King of Britain. Having lost his parents as a child, he was raised by the Lady of the Lake Vivian and thus gained the alias "Knight of the Lake". He was originally born and raised in France. It is said that the tragic love story of Diarmuid Ua Duibhne and Grainne later became the story model of Guinevere and Lancelot. Lancelot's downfall began when he fell in love with Artoria's queen, Guinevere. He was extremely loyal to King Arthur as one of the Knights of the Round Table. The "Knight of the Lake", admired as the strongest even among the Knights of the Round Table. Also known as the Knight of the Lake (湖の騎士, Mizūmi no kishi ?), the person serving as a negative symbol of the Arthurian legend.
