Arthur was soon crowned King of England. Some knights were not happy. They thought that he was just a boy. The warrior knight, Pellinore, was Arthur's greatest enemy, and when Pellinore killed one of Arthur's most loyal knights, Arthur decided to fight him.

He rode his horse to meet Pellinore with his sword in hand. Arthur was not an experienced fighter, and he soon fell. He was lying on the ground badly hurt, and his sword was broken. As Pellinore lifted his sword to kill the young king, Merlin appeared.

Merlin quickly put Pellinore into a deep sleep.Although Merlin was a very powerful wizard, he did not have the power to cure Arthur. So he took Arthur into the forest to see an old hermit. The hermit used herbs, leaves, and plants to make a magical medicine."Please help him," asked Merlin. "He is Arthur, King of England, and the country needs him."
