Much to our table-chewing annoyance. But whatever is going on with his wife and daughter, he's clearly deeply attached to them still. Their pictures are all over his home, and he still wears his wedding ring despite their being no signs of anyone else living in his home. In fact, those pictures are the only personal touches that seem really personal, instead of things he might have around for conspicuous wealth/power signals.Kitty Chandlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05524808952260453841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4271373189216022547.post-65851811111276247802012-09-09T16:59:29.645-07:002012-09-09T16:59:29.645-07:00I think I was in high school the last time I read ...I think I was in high school the last time I read anything at all about Arthur or the Quest for the Grail. This is all very fascinating for me! I will admit though, in my head all of these knights look like Monty Python.<br /><br />Having said that, I want to comment on one of your plot theories. This one in particular: <br /><br />"My second favorite theory is that he wants the key to bargain for the lives of this absent wife and daughter we see reflected in his wedding ring and in pictures all around his home, but have yet to hear a single spoken word of. I wouldn't put it past the Families to keep them hostage against his good behavior."<br /><br />I really like this idea. Its a good motivation for all of his mysterious ways which is the one thing I feel is missing. I find myself wanting Renard to be a good guy even though he is far more interesting as a gray character (see Nick for a boring white knight.)
