Document Summary
When i think of a knight, i typically think of someone who is covered in polished metal armor with a large sword, helmet, shield and other weapons. I was surprised when the story described the knight who interrupted king arthur"s new year celebration party. He was not described as a typical knight. This knight was completely green- his skin, clothes and even his horse was green. He carried a holly branch in one hand and a large axe in the other. Initially, the holly branch made me think that he came in peace, but after he challenged the other knights to chop his head off i concluded otherwise. Knight questioned king arthur and his knights" bravery and fierceness showed that he was asserting his dominance and survival instincts as many animals do. This description leads me to believe that his green color may be connected to nature.
