Avalon is an afterlife, that's my exact point. She's dead.

Actually, no, it's not, not in the traditional sense anyway. It's pretty clear in the legend of King Arthur that she is taken there before she dies, and it is traditionally said that she will return when the country needs her (although, of course, her actual country is now just a small part of Britain that doesn't currently have self-rule).

Except this is not Arthurian Myth!Avalon, but Nasu!Avalon. Stop pretending Nasu actually gives a fuck about the original myth in his writing.

@Umbra

A: never explained intentionally, it's similar to other maddened creation myth. The important part is that it happened, not so much why.

@Brah

A: it's part of the legend

You know what also wasn't part of the legend?
King arthur secretly being a girl.
You're dealing with Nasu Arthur so as Brah said deal with it

drop the attitudes

That's not an answer, and I was 100% genuine. If a single swear word makes you feel butthurt how have you survived on the internet so long?

Lantz, the Avalon part was not even in original myths to begin with.

Original Arthur was closer in attitude to FSN Gilgamesh than Arturia. Eh, collected treasures, fought gods and monsters and was not afraid of anything.

Bedivere made Merlin look like a pussy, being both master swordsman and commanding infernal magic. With one arm.

Gaius/Kai was a mutant. How else you would call a man who could emit supernatural heat from his body, grow in size and be immune to elements.

Gawain had the power set of Extra Gawain, but his adventures were long streak of fucking women and murdering people. Even in post-Geoffrey tales.

Brah, read the rules.

Kat Lancelot exists in the Nasuverse, ergo any myth excluding him in regards to the overall mythos does not count, I use T.H. White's the Once and Future king. Understand and accept this fact.

Which is not Canon to the nasuverse, therefor we should completely ignore this "fact".

Write original fiction if you want to pull bullshit like this.
