Meliodas
Meliodas or Bago is a figure in Arthurian legend, famous as the father of Tristan in the Prose Tristan and subsequent accounts including the Post-Vulgate Cycle, ''Palamedes'', and the ''Compilation'' of Rustichello da Pisa. He was second king of Lyonesse,according to the late Italian romance Il dui Tristani, son of Felec and vassal of King Mark. Meliodas' first wife, Isabelle, who bore Tristan, was Mark's sister, and his second wife was a daughter or sister of Hoel of Brittany.
The French romance, ''Meliadus'' is derived from the work originally entitled ''Palamedes'', a series of tales based on the Tristan and Lancelot-Grail legends but going back to the heroes of the previous generation. Uterpandragon, father of Arthur is still alive, and so are the fathers of Erec and Tristan. The title refers to the Saracen knight Palamedes, whose father Esclabor also plays a role. Certain manuscripts identify Palamedes as one of the central figures, but he seldom appears and Meliodas and his companion Guiron le Courtois are the most important characters.〔Loseth (1890)〕 The ''Compilation'' of Rustichello da Pisa or Rusticien de Pise, is a later re-working of the legend focusing on Meliadus as the central character. Some versions, including the early 16th-century printed editions produced in Paris, are divided into two parts, with the first entitled ''Meliadus de Leonnoys'' and the second ''Gyron le Courtoys''.〔For a detailed analysis of printed versions and their relationships to extant manuscripts, see Lathuillère 1966, pp. 159-64〕 The first part begins with the arrival of Esclabor, father of Palamedes at the court of the young Arthur, and later, of Pharamond, king of the Franks and the 'Chevalier sans peur'. Meliodas only appears after a series of episodes involving these characters. He is, in turn, involved in various exploits which include carrying off the Queen of Scotland, being captured himself and then freed by Arthur, to aid him in his war against the Saxons. His son Tristan appears in the story as a child.〔Ward 1883 p. 368〕 Rustichello da Pisa's more complete version ends with the older knights being delivered from captivity and Meliodas acclaimed 'la flour de toute chevalerie' at Arthur's court.〔Bogdanow, pp. 46,47〕
