Bull terrier, Sir Brunor
Knights of the Round Table
For the Tenth piece of our exclusive Arthurian Knights series we meet Sir Brunor as a Black Brindle and White Bull Terrier.
Sir Brunor the Black was the son of Sir Brunor Senior the 'Good Knight without Fear,' and brother of Sirs Dinadan and Daniel. The knight lost much of his family before he arrived at Arthur's Court. His father was murdered and Sir Lancelot slew his brother, Daniel. Lancelot thus became his sworn enemy.
Sir Brunor travelled to Camelot wearing his dead father's coat which he had vowed not to take off until his murder had been avenged. It did not fit Sir Brunor at all and, upon his arrival at the Royal Court, Sir Kay dubbed him "La Cote Mal Tailliée" - the Knight of the Ill-Fitting Coat.
Sir Kay continued his attempts at humiliating the Black Knight by arranging his first joust to be against the King Arthur's jester, Dagonet. However, Sir Brunor soon proved his worth to his peers by rescuing Queen Guinevere from a lion that had escaped from the King's menagerie. Arthur thus decided, at the request of an ‘Ill-Speaking Maiden’, to send him to avenge the death of a knight on the Isle and Man.
The Black Knight lacked skill in jousting but, on foot, he was unmatchable and slew a dozen knights at the Castle Orguellous. He was captured and imprisoned at Pendragon Castle by Sir Brian of the Isles, but was rescued by Sir Lancelot. This appears to have caused their reconciliation and the two became good friends. They went to the Isle of Man together and killed the six evil brothers named in Brunor's quest.
On the home journey, Sir Brian was finally evicted from Pendragon Castle and Lancelot gave it to Sir Brunor. Arthur made him a Knight of the Round Table, he married the ‘Ill-Speaking Maiden’, and they lived together in their Northerly fortress.
