Erec and Enide Summary
On Easter day, King Arthur decides to revive the tradition of hunting the white stag, and the next morning, they make ready for the hunt. Erec joins, unarmed except for his sword, to keep Queen Guinevere company. The queen sends her maiden to find out who a strange knight is, but the knight's dwarf whips the maiden and Erec. Erec decides to follow the knight until he can avenge Queen Guinevere and himself. King Arthur kills the white stag but is indecisive about upon whom to bestow the kiss due to the offense amongst his knights. The queen advises him to wait until Erec returns. Meanwhile, Erec follows the knight to a town, acquires lodgings at a vavasour's home and admires the vavasour's beautiful but poorly attired daughter, Enide. Erec learns that a collection of knights are in town...
