The Grail is the sacred vessel sought by King Arthur’s knights in the later Arthurian romances. It is most often described as the cup used at the Last Supper and the vessel that received Christ’s blood at the Crucifixion. The quest for the Grail becomes the highest spiritual trial of the Round Table, attainable only by the purest knight.
In the Grail romances, the Fisher King's castle is a sacred stage where divine objects - the Bleeding Lance, Candlesticks, the Grail, Carving Dish, and Table - are revealed in a solemn procession.
Carbonek, also known as Corbenic or the Grail Castle, is the mystical stronghold of the Holy Grail in Arthurian legend. Guarded by the Fisher King, it appears only to the pure of heart.
In Arthurian legend, the Dolorous Stroke is the fateful blow that maims a Grail King and turns his land into the Waste Land. Struck with a forbidden holy weapon the stroke symbolizes sin, broken kingship, and the need for spiritual healing through the Grail Quest.
