Sort of, but a bit more passive aggressive than that. It's like a high school reunion where you come back from the dead and find out that the guy you always sat across from at lunch and were on generally good terms with flipped his shit and launched a violent coup to overthrow the government while you were dead.
That's actually an in-universe error on their part, and one I was kind of waiting for somebody to notice.
Around 5'6", bit stocky but not exactly overweight, and broad at the shoulders. Fairly broad face, dotted with acne scars, and some severely unkempt hair that he only shaves/has cut every three months, although in order to establish proper ethos and a professional demeaner, he's moved that up to a weekly basis since the Incineration began.
Mordred was actually one of the few knights of the Round Table that Galahad actually liked and didn't dismiss as a raging hypocrite.
Yep. When he latches on to something, he tends to go after it like a dog with a bone, and usually only realizes the problems he's making for himself once it's too late.
Thank you. I tried my best, and it's good to know hear that I managed to get what I was going for.
He's already kind of accepted it, after a fashion. No historical source can ever be 100% accurate, after all.
As a fellow Historian, I agree greatly.
I know, right? Every source that describes him paints him as being the tall, thin, tactically brilliant bishonen with a fairly bad case of migraines and a burning ambition for power married to overwhelming intelligence and charisma.
Admittedly, he wasn't entirely thinking straight for most of his pitch. As you might've noticed back in the raid on Bath, while he's willing to perform morally dubious acts in the name of the greater good, he's also not entirely comfortable with it, and copes with it by hamming it up and playing the villain.
The response of the later Carolingians to the Viking Age, actually. So... 9th to 10 century?
Apparently no one told Nasu that.
It should also be noted that Charlie specifically references feudalism, not chivalry (although Galahad does in fact treat the code of chivalry like gospel). Feudalism predates chivalry by quite a bit, especially since chivalry was at least partially spread and popularized by the clergy via chivalric romances in order to cut down on the internecine violence and create some semblance of peace and order by inspiring the various nobles to be better people.
