The Once and future king pg. 201-311

King Arthur wins the battle of Bedegraine, establishing his kingship over the dissenting nobles. He forms the round table to control the ruling class who have been abusing power and taking advantage of the serfs. He discusses his ideas about might and right with Merlin, eventually deciding that just because someone has the power to potentially do something, doesn't necessarily mean they should. This idea is central to the round table, and most of this part of the book is spent discussing it.
