When Beaufils's mother is on her deathbed, she leaves Beaufils with a quest: to find the father he's never known, a knight of King Arthur's court. The naïve youth has never seen the world beyond his isolated forest and doesn't know what a knight is, or who King Arthur is, or even his own name; Beaufils simply means "Fair Son." Somehow, though, he ends up at the Round Table, where he finds a different quest-for a "very pretty" serving dish called the Holy Grail.
