Sir Tristram was riding in the forests when he came upon
Sir Dinadan, whom just happened to be searching for Sir Tristram. They
rode together for some time when Dinaden asked for Tristram's name. Tristram
witheld his name from Dinaden causing Dinaden to want to joust Sir Tristram.
A short
time later, a knight by the name of Epinegris rode toward
them. Epinegris was the son of the King of Northumberland. Tristram
suggested that Dinaden joust Epinegris. The two knights rode against each
other so hard that Dinaden was flung from his horse giving Epinegris the
victory. Tristram told Dinaden that they should leave at once before
anything else happens. Tristram predicted that there will be a later date
for revenge upon Epinegris.
Then Sir
Tristram left them and traveled to the township of Joyous Gard. When he got there, the
townsfolk told him about two knights holding up their leader in his castle.
The knight of Joyous Gard had claimed that
Sir Launcelot was a better knight than
Sir Gawaine, and these two knights whom were holding up the castle were defending Gawaine's
honor. Tristram quickly overtook these knights holding up the town’s knight.
Then Tristram
demanded their identities. The knights were named
Sir Agravaine and
Sir Gaheris, and they were nephews of King Arthur. They were only
defending their bretheren, Gawaine. Tristram then told them about killing
Sir Lamorack. Upon hearing this, Agravaine and Gaheris
planned to take revenge on the death of Sir Lamorack.
