During his quest for the Holy Grail, Sir Launcelot comes upon a stone cross beside an old chapel. He attempts to enter the chapel in hopes of finding some company but he cannot enter. He sees a silver candlestick with six candles burning inside the chapel. Because he cannot enter the chapel and be in the light he decides to sleep outside. While Sir Launcelot is "between waking and sleeping he saw two white palfreys approach the cross" dragging a wounded knight on a "litter." The silver candlestick and six candles began to mov

Sir Launcelot came upon the waters of Morayse and felt that he needed to receive "divine guidance" so he decided to sleep. A voice came to him in his sleep and told him "arise now, arm yourself, and board the first ship that you see." When Sir Launcelot awoke he continued on and he found a ship and boarded it just like the voice told him to do. While he was on the ship he found his son Sir Galahad. One night the ship was blown ashore near a castle and a voice told Sir Launcelot to "leave your ship and enter the castle, where in part your prayers shall be granted." He did as he was told.

He was told that his "quest of the Holy Grail has come to an end" and that he "shall see it no more."
