In Chapter 370, Sir Galahad defeats his father, Sir Launcelot, and Sir Percivale before fleeing when a recluse threatens to reveal his identity. The knights fail to catch him, and Launcelot wanders alone to a ruined chapel, where he cannot enter despite seeing a brightly lit altar inside.

What happens

  1. Disguised Sir Galahad meets Sir Launcelot and Sir Percivale in a forest, and neither recognizes him.
  2. Galahad knocks down Launcelot and his horse, then strikes Percivale from his saddle with a nearly fatal sword blow.
  3. A recluse praises Galahad and hints at his identity, prompting him to flee before the knights can catch him.
  4. Percivale approaches the recluse for news, while Launcelot rides without a path through the forest.
  5. Launcelot reaches a cross and a ruined chapel, sees a lit altar inside, but finds no entrance.
