It is the night before Duran's third birthday and preparations are still underway when suddenly, just before midnight, the warning bells ring out.
It is an increasingly rare sound in Camelot these days and immediately sets the townspeople on edge.
In the castle however, people are even more on edge. The bells can only mean one thing, a prisoner has escaped and there is at present only one...or there was.
Arthur had feared this, but at the same time he hadn't ordered the assassin 'Matthew's' execution on the off chance the man might be able to provide further information on Urien's plans.
That was obviously a mistake...
It was too late now...The fact the man had escaped meant security had well and truly been compromised. There was only one thing the King could do now, despite his Guinevere's precarious state.
The Royal Family would have to flee, now, this very hour.
Camelot is a heavily fortified castle, but once a breach is made it's an open platter, there is a castle a day's ride away that is not so easy to get around.
Lord Gorlois's and Morgana's former home, Tintagel.
It's time to pack and hit the road.
