The Age of Promise



 and how Arthur’s Name Came to Be





 Back in the mists of time when chaos sought dominion over our universe, an event
 unfolded in the constellation known as Draco that would weave its way into our
 history. An icy ball was knocked off course and slowly began its journey towards our
 planet. This was no ordinary comet as, deep within it, was an egg and, within this egg,
 was a secret.


 As this lonely traveller roamed the vastness of space and approached our Earth, the

 heat of the sun made it expand into a spectacular flaming comet. This transformation
 was observed by the wise men of the small island nation of Britannia and they
 watched its progress for weeks with awe and wonder.


 Throughout history comets have been the harbingers of change; they can bring about
 either the rise or fall of fortunes. The young King Uther watched nervously from
 Tintagel, his castle fortress in the South West of his kingdom. This celestial display
 was unlike anything that Uther had seen before, and the comet had a strange shape
 that had him perplexed. What could it mean? Would it bring him power and prosperity
 or war and destruction?


 Uther urgently demanded that his most trusted advisers and astrologers ascertain
 what the timing and shape of the comet could portend, as it appeared to be that of a
 blazing Dragon. This was a momentous observation that required immediate action
 to ensure that this astronomical herald would not bring about disaster for their young   The Age of Promise Puzzle

 Uther decreed that he would take the name of Pendragon, meaning Chief Dragon or

 With a mighty roar, the comet crashed close to an abandoned watchtower. In time
 the impact settled and the earth cooled, revealing the egg. The little star child within
 knew it had finally reached its home.
