"I was removed when I was accused of assaulting a maiden in a sexual manner." That made him frown and his eyes flash red for a moment.
"Gawain refused to come to my defense and instead insisted upon my guilt. The night that this "attack" happened, I had taken the Princess to see the moon and the stars over the fields. When I came back to the quarters I shared with Gawain, he was passed out in a drunken mess. I cleaned him up and got him into bed, so I was unable to commit the crime. But if it was revealed he was in such a condition or that I was with the Princess alone while under his watch got out, he would have lost his Knighthood. It was easier to lie and have me condemned than admit his own faults. I loved my lord dearly. I even had a crush on him. But his betrayal hurt more than being cut with a sword."
"When I was sent to the torture Chamber, Lancelot came by with the Princess. She begged for me to allow her to confess she was with me that eve, and I refused. I did not want her name soiled to protect my own, as she was the only friend I had left. When Lancelot saw this, he told me I was a "true Knight" for holding up my principles, and that I had his respect. It was the first time I ever heard him praise me, and the last. With Gawain and my brother Charles speaking against me, I never had a chance."
"All of this was orchestrated by Morgan La Fey in order for one her sons to become the next King. As the Princess and I were close and talks of the two of us getting married circulated through the kingdom, she did not wish to take the chance I would become King." Dolemeck casually flipped over to the next page of his book as he spoke. "She got my brother to conspire against me along with some maiden, and she knew Gawain would never come to my defense as his bad behavior would be exposed. When I refused to join her on such a plan, she cursed me. She actually turned me into a genderless demon and sent me into limbo."
