All who have faith in the right of the world were gathered, but the one most trusted, betrayed his best friend and slept with his wife. The result, the downfall of the circle and all what it stood for. The quest for the holy grail, the search for knowledge and truth, but only for the pure of heart. It was a good dream.

You need to be more specific. A thorough summary would take more room than this venue.

Arthur was the king of Britain as everyone knows; his knights fought to defend his kingdom of Camelot and the ideal of chivalry throughout the land until it was brought down by both the betrayal of Arthur's wife Guinevere and his knight Lancelot and the betrayal of his nephew or son Mordred. There are sometimes 50, 150, or 1600 knights. They include Lancelot, Gawain, Galahad, Bors, Percival, Bedivere, Kay, Mordred, etc. The Round Table signified that no single knight sat at the head of the talbe and that all were equal.

Most of this is based on the English Geoffrey of Monmouth or the French Chretien de Troyes, both in the 12th century. The historical Arthur dates to the late 5th or early 6th century and would not have had any medieval knights as they did not exist yet.

You remember Arthur had a child with his half-sister Morgan. I assume his child, Mordred, killed Arthur in battle. Also assuming, Arthur's knights would have gone with Arthur into battle unless their code said something against it.
Different stories for different folks....

Here's something interesting: Arthur's knights names- Kay, Gawain, Lancelot, Percival, Tristan, Palamedes and Galahad.

I think King Arthur (in Monty Python and the Holy Grail) said it best:

"On second thought, let's not go to Camelot. It is a silly place."

been changed numerous times throughout the years, each
time to make it more acceptable to that time's mores
