    Arthurian legend fan

    Morgan le Fay was King Arthurs half sister ...mother of Mordred

    some say evil, some say magikal...

    Lady of the Lake...Lady of Avalon.........brought the great sword Excalibur to Arthur to keep the alliance of the pagan religions

    "The Mists of Avalon" is one of my favorite books...
    have read it 4 times....over the last 20 years....almost time to read it again.

    I bought the reissue hardcover as my original fell apart....

    I would have picked out something nice but with all the accounts you people banned it seems those where all used up.

    Honestly, my name has almost no significants to me. I tend to change my nic every 4 or 5 years. Tin.Roof.Rabbit was created for my gmail account since my prior two nicnames were taken.

    If we wouldn't have banned them, they still wouldn't have been available
