Die Legende

Der Legende zufolge gab Excalibur seinem Träger übermenschliche Kräfte, und seine Schwertscheide machte jeden, der sie bei sich trug, unverletzlich. Das erste Schwert von Artus war von Merlin, dem letzten Druiden auf Erden, durch einen Stein in einen Amboss gesteckt worden. Nur der wahre Herrscher konnte es herausziehen. Nachdem zahlreiche namhafte Ritter und Adlige an dieser Aufgabe gescheitert waren, kam Artus, Sohn des englischen Großkönigs Uther Pendragon, zu diesem Stein. Der Zauberer Merlin zeigte Artus den Stein und ermöglichte ihm den Versuch, das Schwert herauszuziehen.So wurde er zum rechtmäßigen König. Nachdem der zum König ernannte Artus das Schwert aus dem Stein in einer Schlacht zerschlagen hatte, übergab die Herrin von See dem jungen König das Schwert EXCALIBUR, um damit sein Königreich zu schützen. Die dazugehörige Schwertscheide von EXCALIBUR sorgte dafür, dass König Artus selbst mit den schlimmsten Wunden kein Blut verlor, jedoch raubte seine Halbschwester Morgan LeFay durch eine List die Schwertscheide, und Artus konnte durch Verletzungen gefährdet werden, aber Excalibur blieb ihm erhalten. Nachdem Artus in einer Schlacht gegen Mordred zu Tode gekommen war, wurde Excalibur in den See geworfen, bevor er in Avalon ankam. Dort soll es der Sage nach noch immer ruhen. (Vgl. Wikipedia, http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excalibur, Stand: 6.12.09)

The legend

According to the legend, EXCALIBUR gave its owner superhuman power. Its scabbard made anyone who wore on, inviolable. The first sword of Arthur was made by Merlin, the last druid upon the planet, being put through a stone and into an anvil. Only the true ruler could pull it out. After numerous prominent and noble knights in had failed Artus came, son of the english King Uther Pendragon, to the stone. The wizard Merlin showed Artus the stone and enabled him to try pulling out the sword, what Arthur also succeeded and made him the legitimate king. After king Artus smashed the sword from the stone in a battle, the mistress of the lake handed the sword EXCALIBUR to the young king, in order to protect his kingdom. The scabbard of Excalibur ensured that King Artus lost with the worst wounds no blood, but his half-sister LeFay robbed the scabbrad with a craft and so Arthur could be at risk by injuries, but at least he had already EXCALIBUR. After Arthur died in a battle against Mordred, Excalibur was threw into a sea, before he arrived in Avalon. According to the legend EXCALIBUR still rest there.
