Arthur knelt down before the stone, performed this act, took the sword, went with it into the cathedral, and offered it on the altar. He was anointed with the Holy Oil and solemnly swore in the presence of all barons and the common people to be a just king, defending truth and justice for all the days of his life. Legend and history intertwined over time, and King Arthur's legend, the Knights of the Round Table, and the magical sword Excalibur have become intertwined along this path
