Tristan, a knight of King Arthur's round table, has always held the stature of an honorable, fair, and loyal knight. Tristan, the nephew and champion of King Mark of Cornwall and the son of Meliodas, King of Lyoness, has long held the title of royalty and heir to his father's thrown. Tristan's mother died when he was born, and as a young man he took service with his uncle, Mark. Although Tristan, well known throughout the world as a knight of the Round Table, has gained fame for his loyalty to Arthur, he has lived a tragic life. Tristan had an affair with his uncle's soon to be wife, died a tragic death, and only had a minor role in the tale of King Arthur; yet all that have heard the tale of Arthur have known of the story of Tristan and his tragic tale.
