After Arthur Pendragon defeated Vortigern, he reclaimed his rightful throne as the true king. He knights his friends and is now in charge of the kingdom. More than a year has passed and everyone seems to be focused on why the King still hasn't found...
Daisy is sitting next to the window in her room. She's looking at the rain that just began outside. The weather fits with the sadness she's feeling at the moment.
Her parents step in her room. "Daisy, enough of this melancholia. You have to get out of this room." Mary said. "You've been in here for two whole days."
"What difference does it make? It's not like I have anywhere to go." Daisy replied with an indifferent tone.
"You're home. This is where you belong." Thomas said.
"No. That has changed. I belong at Camelot. That's my home now." Daisy insisted.
"Daisy, this is your home. This has always been your home. Camelot is for people with noble status. We're just the Turners from Londinium who own a bakery." Mary said.
"Arthur doesn't think that makes a point. He accepts me for just being myself." Daisy said.
"You're so naïve, sweetheart. He's filling your head with false ideas." Mary insisted. "He's a king, but his intentions are not good. He was a street rat who lived in a brothel. He made money from the brothel and fights. He took money from Vikings. He's not an honest man."
"You're wrong. He's a good man. His past doesn't define him. His uncle thrust this harsh life on him. He had to survive somehow. Arthur is very intelligent. He's a good leader. The knights respect him." She explained.
"He's clever. He knows how to put on a good front." Thomas said.
"I've seen it with my own eyes." Daisy emphasized. "Why did you cause the scandal yesterday? Arthur didn't kidnap me nor has he mistreated me. I love him." She asked her mother.
"You're infatuated. There is a big difference between love and infatuation." Mary exclaimed. "You don't know what you're saying."
"I know what I feel for Arthur is absolute love." Daisy said. "Please, drop the accusation so Arthur can be free."
"You will marry Oliver. He's better suited for you." Mary said. "Stop talking blasphemy about how you supposedly love King Arthur."
"I love Arthur with my heart and soul. I will not marry Oliver Morgan. I will not marry someone who wants to control me. I don't care that he can provide a comfortable life for me. I want to be with Arthur and you can't tell me otherwise."

Londinium Jail
Arthur is sleeping on a blanket the guards placed for him. There was a second blanket in the cell and he managed to throw it over himself.
A loud banging noise hit the metal bars startling Arthur from his sleep. He saw Sir William and the Mage standing next to the cell.
"Good. You're awake." Sir William said.

"What are you doing here?" Arthur asked them. He noticed the Mage is holding Excalibur in her right hand. "Why are you holding the sword?" He asked the Mage.
