PATRIDES
Patrides of the Golden Circle(?)
This knight of Arthur's was made Count of Flanders after Arouz was killed resisting Arthur's army on its way to battle Claudas and free Elyzabel.
Either this knight or another of the same name was rescued by Percivale from the castle of Garantan, where he had been imprisoned for trying to run away with the lady of the place. [Vulgate V; this appears, however, to a variant of the tale of the Uncourteous Lady and Sir Persides in Malory XI.]
He is probably Patrides of the Golden Circle, a knight who performed well in a tournament thrown by King Brandegorre of Estrangorre, and he swore fealty to Brandegorre’s daughter.
