I can see why you won the contest. This is a fun read. It is well written with no errors and the illustration pairs perfectly. I like the way you brought it back to the present from your "time out." Nicely done.

Thanks so much for the read and review.
Comment from Marjon van Bruggen
Wow! Some flash story! It mixes a delightful fantasy of the knights of the round table, King Arthur, knight Lancelot and his horse, and your obvious love for Nature and walks in the damp woods. I greatly enjoyed the read.

Welcome!

I really enjoyed this fantasy trip to Camelot. You set the scene beautifully in the forest, focusing on aromas before drawing our attention to the fancy chair. I can easily see myself tripping over a root, bumping my head, and having a dream like this. Rod

Thank you, sir, for the read and the review. Much appreciated.
Comment from RShipp
' I trudge deeper into the woods; my shoes and pants dampen as I muck through the wet foliage.' This was your best descriptive sentence. Well done.
You have met the requirements of 'forest' and 'chair'.
Best of luck in the FlashFantasy2020 writing prompt contest.

Comment from Liz O'Neill
This account is fun. At first the reader is feeling peaceful enjoying the lovely scenery. Then you take us on a literary historic adventure. We're right along, experience the fantasy. Then finally we are plunked onto the ground to be twisted yet again. It was all from a concusion. I am voting for this.

How fortunate that you awakened. It could have been a nightmare, but you wove a lovely tale in remembering the dream. You never know what may come of a simple hike.

Yes, good think it was a dream, don't think I would have made a good knight, can't ride horseback very well. Anyway, thank you for the read, review and the comments.
Comment from zanya
Yes indeed - an interesting interlude in the forest among beings from a different dimension - who knows what may reside there - nicely encased in the walk in the forest and who knows where the lines of reality and illusion blur ?

A gripping story. I admired the natural descriptions. I wondered where it was going with Sir Lancelot and the Round Table. It was a bit disappointing when it turned out to be a dream.

This well written flash fantasy story is an excellent contest entry. It held my interest throughout. It is left to the reader's imagination to decide what is real and what is not.

Comment from Jasmine Girl
This is definitely my favorite flash fiction for a while. I would love to give you a six stars but can't now. I love the first paragraph. I also hiked a lot in the woods and understand what you mean in the following sentence:
"sweet aroma emanating from the just sprinkled foliage envelopes my senses."
What a nice visit to the Camelot!
