Brewer, Ebenezer Cobham (21 March 1890). "The Reader's Handbook of Allusions, References, Plots and Stories, with Three Appendices". Chatto and Windus – via Google Books. Guinnevere" was a song written in 1968 by David Crosby that appears on Crosby, Stills and Nash's eponymous debut album.

World-famous as Baroque family's fencing is, young Guinevere doesn't like it at all. Just like other girls, she is naturally fond of gorgeous things. From youth, she was sent to the Magic Academy. Relying on her own sensitive spiritual perception and anti-gravity magic, when Guinevere was 10 years old, she successfully combined mental perception with super energy and invented multiple magic effects — magic superpower. Such a breakthrough made Guinevere more passionate about magic, and she often experimented with her new magic on her brother, Lancelot. No matter how Lancelot hides, he will be found by his sister. Therefore, Lancelot is often caught in an unknown thrill. In his childhood, his sister was always causing him a headache. But anyhow, Lancelot still loves Guinevere. He always shows a smile to his beloved sister. But every time when Lancelot thinks of his little sister's magic experiment, he would wear a bitter smile.Although peace is restored to Camelot, Gwen has to look after Uther for a year as he is still shaken by Morgana’s betrayal. Gwen tells Gaius that she is only doing it for Arthur’s sake and not Uther’s. Meanwhile, Morgana attempts to take revenge on Camelot again by summoning creatures known as the Dorocha and Arthur plans to sacrifice himself to defeat them. Before leaving, he tearfully says goodbye to Uther and comforts Gwen by reminding her of the day he first kissed her. Gwen then goes to Lancelot, telling him to keep Arthur safe and he promises that he will protect Arthur with his life.

Because of training, she became more handsome rather than saying beautiful. She turned to be a plumpy woman of average height. She had dark blue eyes and long dark golden hair which implies her characteristic of Scandinavian blood. She was one of the richest women and also a great warrior with highly fair skin. She received a lot many proposals for marriage, but she found none of them suitable. The Love Story of Queen and Lancelot The Quest for GuinevereWelsh cleric and author Caradoc of Llancarfan, who wrote his Life of Gildas sometime between 1130 and 1150, [32] recounts her being kidnapped and raped ( violatam et raptam) by Melwas, king of the "Summer Country" ( Aestiva Regio, perhaps meaning Somerset), and held prisoner at his stronghold at Glastonbury. The story states that Arthur spent a year searching for her and assembling an army to storm Melwas' fort when Gildas negotiates a peaceful resolution and reunites husband and wife. [33] The episode seems to be related to an Old Irish abduction motif called the aithed in which a mysterious stranger kidnaps a married woman and takes her to his home; the husband of the woman then rescues her against insurmountable odds. [34] A seemingly related account was carved into the archivolt of Modena Cathedral in Italy, which most likely predates that telling (as well as any other known written account of Arthurian legend). Here, Artus de Bretania and Isdernus approach a tower in which Mardoc is holding Winlogee, while on the other side Carrado (most likely Caradoc) fights Galvagin (Gawain) as the knights Galvariun and Che (Kay) approach. Isdernus is most certainly an incarnation of Yder ( Edern ap Nudd), a Celtic hero whose name appears in Culhwch and Olwen. Yeder is actually Guinevere's lover in a nearly-forgotten tradition mentioned in Béroul's 12th-century Tristan. This is reflected in the later Romance of King Yder, where his lover is Queen Guenloie of Carvain (possibly Caerwent in Wales [35]). Three years later, Camelot enjoys a time of prosperity and peace with Arthur and Guinevere as its rulers. However, after Gwaine, Percival and some other knights do not return from their mission, Arthur and his knights leave and Guinevere stands to rule Camelot alone. She befriends her maid, Sefa, but notices her odd behaviour when at nightfall she leaves Camelot and heads to the woods. When it is revealed that there is a traitor in Camelot, Gwen suspects Sefa, and, when the latter confesses her treachery, Guinevere sentences her to death ( Arthur's Bane:Part One).
