 As a wind sweeps clamorous1 into a wood, so Modred and his fellows, household knights2, streamed into the great hall of Avalon, where the Lord Flavian sat at supper. Bearers of angry steel, fulminators of vengeance3, vociferous4, strong, they poured in through the screens like a mill race, bearing a tossed and impotent figure in their midst. Their swords yelped5 and flashed over this bruised6 fragment of humanity.
 
A gauntlet of steel was dashed often into the white face. Hands clawed his collar, clutched his body. Dragged, jerked onwards, buffeted7, beaten to his knees, he sank down before the Lord Flavian's chair, blood streaming from his mouth and nostrils8, specking his white habit, drabbling the floor. Then only did the flashing, growling9 circle recede10 like waves from a fallen rock.
 
Modred, a black man, burly, a bigot to honour, stood out a giant before his fellows. His great sword quivered to the roof; his deep voice shook the rafters.
 
"Blood, sire, blood."
 
The man in the white habit quailed11, and held up his hands.
 
"Let me smite12 him as he kneels."
 
"Sirs, give me the courtesy of silence."
