The Story
Traveling through his kingdom’s forest one day King Arthur is confronted by The Red Knight who plans to slay him but decides to challenge him with the riddle “What does a woman want from a man?” Instructing him that there is only one correct answer he sets him free with the proviso that he must return in a month with the solution or be put to death. Riding beside the King, Sir Gawain and he become acquainted with Maid Marian who exiled herself to the forest. A frustrating month ensues as Arthur seeks the answer finally, striking a bargain with a hag to save himself. But will the price be too high?
