Avalon
Avalon is a legendary island from the stories of King Arthur. It is said to be a magical and mysterious place where Arthur was taken after his final battle. Some believe it is a land of healing and eternal life, ruled by powerful women, including the sorceress Morgan le Fay.
Avalon is often described as a hidden island, surrounded by mist, where only a few people can enter. Many legends say that Arthur will one day return from Avalon to help his people again. Some also believe that the famous sword Excalibur was made or kept there.
Avalon remains a mystical symbol of magic, peace, and the unknown.
