The Table of Less Valued Knights

The Table of Less Valued Knights

Down-on-his-luck, knight of Camelot and his eccentric band of misfits, Sir Humphrey du Val has had enough. Relegated to the Table of Less Valued Knights, he has been banned by King Arthur from going on quests, and hasn't left the castle in 15 years. After a chance meeting with Elaine a young maiden in search of her kidnapped fiancé, Sir Humphrey, along with his squire Conrad (an undersized giant) and Jemima (Conrad's elephant), sets off on a journey to find the distressed damsel's betrothed hoping to restore himself to a place of honour at the Round Table. Meanwhile, Martha, an errant queen on the run from her new power-hungry husband, is in disguise and on a quest of her own to find her long-lost brother, the true ruler of her realm. Martha soon runs--literally--into Humphrey's eccentric group, who take the incognito queen captive, believing her to be a boy. As they journey through countryside, castles and villages, they gather unlikely friends and enemies along the way. While each member of the party secretly harbours their own ambitions for the quest, their collective success, and the fate of the realm, rests on their grudging cooperation and unexpectedly.
