Part 1: The Winning of Kinghood

Chapter 1: How Sir Kay Fought at London Town, Broke His Sword, and Was Given a New Sword by Arthur

凯(Sir Kay)，亚瑟王圆桌骑士之一，亚瑟王的义兄和重要家臣。亚瑟的养父Ector爵士的儿子，和亚瑟是兄弟。当Kay参加选拔新的英国君王的比武竞技时，他的剑在格斗过程中折断了。Arthur替Kay跑回所住的帐篷营地拿备用的剑时没能找到任何武器，但他想起了在教堂看到过一把插在石头上的剑，于是就去那里随手就把那把插在石头上的剑拔了出来。看似偶然，但其实亚瑟就是注定拥有王者之剑的未来的君王。有时候命运可能就是偶然中的必然。

Chapter 2: How Arthur Performed the Miracle of the Sword and Discovered His Birthright

就像亚瑟命中注定只有他能轻而易举地拔出王者之剑，这一章节最后那句“They need only passionately pull the sword of their dreams out from the solid iron of their situation."意味着每个人只要有毅力与信念，即使处于艰难境地也会因为执着努力而实现目标。
