Do u think Bedwyr was heartbroken when he'd heard Cai died? When he had to bear Excalibur into the lake and watch as the Lady bore it aloft, up, up, up, down, down, down, until it sank back beneath the waves. Like think about it, his two best buds are dead, the two boys he'd always been lumped with, the two men who he'd grown alongside, the king and the seneschal perished in battle. The two men he'd loved the best.
(And said goodbye to the most.)
And him, left to wander the earth, nothing more than a monk, a hermit, a hollow echo of a distant, destroyed kingdom, crippled by grief and guilt.
