Legend has it that in ancient Britain, there was a tyrant, Uther Pendragon, who ruled the country. In order to consolidate his power, he enlists the help of the magician Merlin. Merlin promised to help him, but demanded that Uther must abide by his terms. Merlin told Uther that he would fall in love with a beautiful woman and give birth to a son who would become the true king of Britain.

Later, Uther fell in love with Queen Igleen and gave birth to a son with her, who was Arthur. However, King Uther died in a battle, leaving behind young Arthur and Queen Guinevia. To protect Arthur, the wizard Merlin sends him to a safe place and tells him to come of age in search of a sword stuck in a stone that will be a sign of his becoming king.

Years later, Arthur grew up to be a brave knight. One day he heard that there was a sword stuck in a stone in London, and whoever could pull out it would be the king of England. Arthur decides to travel to London in search of the legendary sword in stone.

When Arthur arrived in London, he found that the sword was indeed stuck in a huge stone, and many people gathered around him who had come to try to draw the sword, but all of them were unsuccessful. Arthur stepped forward, gripped the hilt of his sword with both hands, and drew it with all his might. Amazingly, the sword slipped out of the stone with ease and fell into Arthur's hands. Engraved with the inscription reads: "Whoever draws this sword will become the king of England." Merlin told Arthur that the sword was King Uther's and that only a true king could pull it out.

From then on, King Arthur began his reign. He led the Knights of the Round Table, campaigning everywhere to defend the territory and people of Britain. His wisdom and courage earned him the respect and love of the people, and he became one of the greatest monarchs in the history of England.

This story is not only a central part of Arthurian legend, but also one of the important elements in British culture. It symbolizes justice, courage, and leadership, and inspires people to fight for justice and peace.
