Percivale’s Hermit Uncle

Withdrawn from the world, hermits and anchorites appear as voices of divine truth. They counsel errant knights, interpret visions, and remind the worldly of penance and mortality.

Percivale of Wales is the knight most closely linked to the Quest for the Holy Grail. First portrayed as a naïve youth raised in the wild, he grows into a figure of faith and perseverance, achieving the vision of the Grail alongside Galahad and Bors.
