Josephe, son of Joseph of Arimathea, is portrayed in the Vulgate romances as the first Christian bishop and the original Grail Keeper.
The Ark of the Covenant, a sacred chest of divine power, was carried into Arthurian legend as a symbol of God’s favor, protection, and the sacred covenant that guided the knights of Britain.
Once Balin's weapon, this sword carried both prophecy and peril. Only the destined knight could wield it safely.
A sacred relic of destiny, the Adventurous Shield could be borne safely by only one knight: Galahad, the pure Grail hero.
