Fables, n. 20: Camelot

The classic Arthurian legends add a rich layer to the story. I wonder how the author decided to adapt and expand these tales within this modern fairy tale setting.

The way characters jockey for influence reminded me of real-world politics. Was this a deliberate parallel or just a natural part of the story?

The illustrations really bring the magic and drama to life. I'm curious what choices went into the visual design to evoke the legendary feel of Camelot.
