King Arthur is determined to make the journey to Northland and attend Michael's coronation despite the danger along the way. He assigns Valiant the dual tasks of preparing the security measures for the journey and delivering a personal message to Rowanne.

The time has come for Rowanne to face King Arthur and ask for forgiveness.
