"The Mists of Avalon"

Author: Marion Eleanor Zimmer Bradley

It tells the Arthurian myth from another angle, narrating an epic legend through the voices of legendary female figures—pious Queen Gwenhwyfar, the ambitious Morgause, Lady of the Lake Viviane, and Avalon's last Priestess Morgan. While the people of the old world fought against the Saxon invaders, they faced an even greater threat: the narrow-minded patriarchal society and Christian doctrine. The ancient mother goddess worship land—Avalon was about to disappear into the mists...

"Avalon" - A film directed by Mamoru Oshii from Japan.

In the final episode of the Japanese animation "Fate/stay night," there is a mention of "an ideal world isolated from the world," pronounced as アヴァロン (Avalon) in Japanese, synonymous with Avalon. In a slightly later plot, it is mentioned as a Holy Land that even the five great magics cannot interfere with.

In the Japanese animation "Tears to Tiara," the castle belonging to Arawn (アロウン) is also called Avalon, meaning "Apple Castle," and is likened to a Peach Blossom Spring paradise.

In the Japanese animation "Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion," Avalon is a floating multifunctional battleship equipped with a strong particle cannon, used exclusively by the Second Prince Shunazeel.

In the novel "Rui Zhi Shi Ji" written by Rui Zhi Shi, the protagonist Ash Blake's Pal Eiko belongs to the Avalon clan.

"Implosion -Never Lose Hope-" (English: Implosion -Never Lose Hope-) is an ARPG game developed by the Taiwanese game company Rayark, taking three and a half years to produce. The story is set in the distant future when Earth is infested by alien viruses. The protagonist Jack remotely operates a mecha to perform missions on Earth, and the mecha he pilots in the game is named Avalon.

The name Avalon likely comes from the Celtic word abal, meaning "apple." In British legend, the island is famed for its beautiful apples. Some believe it is the Anglicized form of the Celtic "Annwyn," meaning Land of the Fairies or Netherworld. In Arthurian legend, Avalon is surrounded by swamps and mists, accessible only by boat. The island is guarded by elves, where time and age cease to exist.

Avalon is also believed to be the island Jesus visited with Joseph of Arimathea when he came to the United Kingdom. It is said the first church in Britain was built there. In this legend, Avalon is thought to be Glastonbury in southwestern Greenland. In Celtic, Glastonbury is also called "Ynis Witrin," meaning The Isle of Glass. An interesting explanation is that ancient glass mirrors were polished from bronze, and the lush greenery of Glastonbury, vivid in color, is thusly named.

Another possible location is Mont St. Michel. This rumored site of Arthur's battle with giants sits atop sand dunes. It is said Joseph of Arimathea once ran a tin business there. Joseph later brought the Holy Grail to Britain, establishing the first church in Glastonbury, Somerset. It's also said he took his nephew Jesus to Britain. The Bible remains silent about Jesus' life before he was sanctified.

Word Origin

There is a theory that the origin of the word Avalon is an Anglicized form of the Celtic "Annwyn" (安温), meaning Land of the Fairies or Netherworld. British chronicler Geoffrey of Monmouth believed Avalon to mean isle of apples. In the 20th century, the word apple is still spelled as Afal in Breton and Cornish, while in Welsh, it remains as Aval, lending credence to Geoffrey's interpretation.

Glastonbury is called "Ynis Witrin" in Celtic, meaning The Isle of Glass. The term glass symbolizes the clear and transparent waters surrounding Glastonbury.

The history of Mont St. Michel dates back to 708 AD. It is said a red cardinal bishop named Ober from the town of Avranches dreamt of Saint Michael the Archangel.

One night, Saint Michael appeared in Ober's dream for the third time during a thunderstorm, touching his forehead with his divine finger. Awakening to discover a dent on his forehead, Bishop Ober realized its significance and immediately traveled to Tombstone Mountain to fulfill the archangel's divine command. Thus, Mont St. Michel saw its first church.

In the Treasure Room of Saint Vige at Avranches, one can still see the skull of Bishop Ober, said to bear the angel's finger impression. Subsequently, countless clerics and craftsmen transported blocks of granite across quicksand, pulling them up the mountain step by step. Numerous architects and artists honed their skills and carved on these hard rocks.

After generations of arduous effort, the Saint Michael's Monastery was finally completed in the 16th century. Ober's dream had kept people busy for a full eight centuries. Subsequently, many shops and inns were built at the mountain's foot.

Once completed, Mont St. Michel became a pilgrimage site for the faithful and a favorite destination for tourists. During the Hundred Years' War between England and France from 1337 to 1453, 119 French knights were sent to the monastery by a wavering baron between France and England to aid the local monks and civilians, defending against the English with the help of walls and bastions for over 24 years! Every time, the patriots cherished the invaluable half-day respite provided by the high tide that submerged the tidal flats connecting the island to the mainland. In this long-drawn-out war, the island was the only military stronghold in the area never to fall.

Mont St. Michel stands in the sea between Northern France, Normandy, and Breton, covering a small area with a diameter of only 1 kilometer. Although the mountain is not high, the monastery atop it stands nearly twice as tall. Mont St. Michel comprises a medieval architectural complex of rocks, houses, walls, castles, and the monastery, embodying the sublime unity of nature's grandeur and human wisdom and perseverance.

While lacking the palatial splendor of the Palace of Versailles, the grand spectacle of the Eiffel Tower, the colorful grandeur of the Louvre, or the bustling vibrance of the Champs-Élysées, Mont St. Michel attracts 3.5 million visitors annually for sightseeing and tide watching. The great writer Hugo once remarked that Mont St. Michel is as crucial to France as the Great Pyramid is to Egypt.
