Researchers have unveiled the legacy of a sword dubbed ‘Excalibur’ found in Valencia, tracing its path from Visigoth hands to the Umayyad Caliphate's reign. The captivating saga of a historic sword reshapes our understanding of Islamic influence in medieval Spain.
(116) Optimus Prime can't help but be crowned with divine responsibilities he doesn't want everywhere he looks. It's basically his curse.
On a routine energon survey near an old church just outside London, he trips over a historic monument. For a second he thinks he's broken the little human model of a sword stuck in a rock, and then he hears a booming voice announce from the heavens, "whoso pulleth out this sword of this stone and anvil, is rightwise king born of all England."
Very politely, Optimus Prime tries to put the monument back together. Sword, meet stone. Please.
But neither the booming sky voice, nor Excalibur, nor—as it eventually transpires—the majority of the English, are open to accepting his polite refusal.
