GRAILHOLY
This chalice was said to have been the same one that Jesus christ used at the Last Supper, and further, had received the Saviour's blood after his side had been pierced by a spear, at the Crucifixion. Brought to Britain by Joseph of Arimithea, the Grail was lost over the ages, and the search for it occupied King Arthur's Knights of the Round Table, they believing that if it could be found the dark times which had fallen on Britain would lift. It was said to be in a mysterious castle, surrounded by desolate lands and stretches of water, and its custodian was the Fisher King, who lay wounded and immobile, neither dead nor alive.
