After King Ban and King Bors left, King Arthur rode his horse to Carlion. There he saw  King Lot's wife with her four sons. Arthur liked her because she was a fair lady. Before king Arthur and king lots wife went to bed her and king Arthur conceived a child without king Arthur knowing that she was his sister. That night King Arthur went to bed and started dreaming.  He dreamed of griffins and serpents and how he killed all the people in the land, but while fighting they still wounded him. When he woke up he wanted to get the dream out of his head so he wanted to go hunting with some of his other Knights. When he went out hunting, he saw a beast so terrible that his horse lost his breath and dropped dead. Quickly the yeoman fetched the king another horse.

Then while Arthur was looking and thinking about the beast and his horse, he heard about thirty hounds in the distance. While hearing the hounds, the king saw the beast going up to take a drink.  The king had never seen anything like it. After the beast was done drinking, he let out a horrible sound and left the drinking hole.

After the beast left the king was thinking about what he just saw and fell asleep. While he was sleeping a knight came and woke him and asked if he had seen a strange beast walk by. The king said he had seen such a beast and that it killed his horse. Then the knight asked the king for his horse and says that he has been following the beast for twelvemonth and either he will kill the beast or he will die trying. Then Pelinore followed the beast after the death of sir Palamides.
