Well, I think it's more a combination of things like "Prince Eli was already married" (which increases scandal/shame), and "Camelot is trying to hold itself to a higher moral/ethical standard".I don't get it. It seems fairly standard politicking by medieval Europe era? I mean, if I were one of the King of the many kingdoms that Artura declared her land by right of magic, I would be pissed too. Especially if she's just a bloody snivelling knight who went head over heels for a pretty boy of a prince.
And Gwynn's a total arse, it's as if things like a woman pregnant out of wedlock was not a thing in that time, knight lady or not. Or was there something else there between him and Lorelei? Or was it the man Lorelei slept with?
Do enlighten me, I don't read the Arthurian Mythos so the names don't jump at me like most of you.
Just because in the muddy mundane world "pregnant out of wedlock" was/is a thing that happens a lot, doesn't mean Camelot's most esteemed figures of virtue, nobility, and honor aren't held to slightly higher standards.
(Gwynn was maybe just personally jealous, but I can understand the reasoning of some kind of punishment being levied.)
