KING ARTHUR'S LABYRINTH Deep in the Dark Ages, the legions of the once mighty Roman Empire had withdrawn from Britain leaving the native Celts to defend themselves against the Saxons. Out of the darkness came Arthur, a great prophecy, destined to defeat the marauding enemies of other lands and from within and to bring peace to the people of this great land. His feats of bravery, supernatural powers and strength of leadership brought defeat for the forces of darkness and in a time when history was passed on by bards and storytellers, tales of Arthur's deeds were sung throughout the land, developing into legend.
