<\/p>\nIn the story “The Knight of the Cart”, there is no question that Sir Lancelot is the heroic figure. However, he makes a few decisions that are less than wholesome and less than that of a hero. When the Woman approaches him to welcome Lancelot into her home and sleep with her, he initially chooses the right thing and says he should continue on his way instead. He eventually gives in to her offer and finds himself in a bad place. A true hero would have stuck to his word and found another place to sleep or continued on the quest. Even when Lancelot sees the armed men raping the women who invited him in he hesitates and debates in his head whether or not to save her. He questions himself on if he could defeat the armed men even though he is one of the best fighters in the land. He finally jumps in and saves her before its too late but his hesitance proves that he is not a flawless hero, he is a normal human being that questions his own actions and gives in to the temptations of life. These little lapses of heroism show us that even heroes have flaws and that nobody can be perfect. In the end he does the right thing and everything works out but if they did not and Lancelot just walked away in the first place would he still be hailed as a hero?<\/p>\n
