Pendragon Tales: Advent of the Once and Future King — Ep 2: The Star Over Britain

EPISODE 2 — The Star Over Britain

Before crowns were forged.
Before swords were raised.
Before the world knew a king was coming…
the heavens spoke first.

In the frozen hush of a broken Britain, a single white-gold star tears across the winter sky.
Warlords dismiss it.
Druids debate it.
The powerful ignore it.

But the humble — shepherds, widows, forgotten souls kneeling beside dying hearth fires — feel something stir they cannot explain.

Merlin alone understands the truth:
this light is not a warning…
it is an invitation.

Just as a star once rose over Bethlehem — not for emperors, but for seekers — so this sign in the heavens points toward a birth the proud will overlook and the lowly will recognize.
A birth that threatens kingdoms built on iron instead of virtue.
A king who will come quietly, precisely when darkness believes it has won.

This episode explores the mystery at the heart of Advent:
that hope rarely arrives with trumpets,
that heaven speaks in whispers,
and that the greatest changes in history often begin unseen.

If you’ve ever felt surrounded by cold, uncertainty, or silence —
this chapter is your reminder:
Light always knows where to find the faithful.

The star has risen.
The journey has begun.
And the world will never be the same.

Every winter ends. Every silence breaks. A king is on the way.
