#3 - The Guardian
S1:E141/12/1992
Sir Gawain can hardly contain his boredom as he leads a small battalion to the Roman Wall on what he believes to be a wild goose chase. Julian the gatekeeper is such a simple-minded buffoon that his warnings hold little value to the proud knight. But trouble is in fact brewing up north, suggesting that there may actually be an impending threat to Camelot's safety. Valiant and Arn must uncover the problem on their own when Gawain can't be located by any of the men.

S1:E183/15/1992
The day has finally come to deliver Baron Draconarius to King Ian so that he can be punished for the murder of Kengary's chief advisor. This is a dangerous time to do so, for the kingdom of Kengary is in the middle of a bloody civil war caused by the as-yet unavenged crime. Valiant is assigned the task of escorting the prisoner to his fate (which is sure to be death). Unfortunately, his hate-fueled drive to see that his old foe pays for his crimes places the entire mission in jeopardy.

#7 - The Gathering Storm
S2:E386/18/1993
Mordred's army is only two days from the castle and outnumbers Camelot's forces three to one. This leaves Valiant with the dual tasks of fortifying his soldiers for a bloody battle and convincing the fleeing populace that all hope did not die with Arthur. The surprise reappearance of Lady Morgana does little to ease our hero's troubled state of mind. Especially after she hands him solid proof identifying the knight who is even now plotting to cripple the command structure of Camelot's army.
