Arthur later sent his knights on a quest to find the [[Holy Grail]], which is finally found on the Isle of [[Avalon]] guarded by an order of virgin priestesses led by [[Morgan la Fay]]. After this successful quest, Arthur's illegitimate nephew [[Mordred]] plans to overthrow him, and the two meet in battle at [[Camlann]]. Mordred is killed, and Arthur, mortally wounded, is taken to the Isle of Avalon for healing by Morgan la Fay. According to legend he will only return when his country truly needs him. This occurred in the year 539 AD, according to Welsh chronicles. After Arthur's departure, England broke up into warring factions and was not finally reunited as a united kingdom until the time of [[Alfred the Great]] in the 9th century.
