They ask why Sir Galahad why he is there, at the Abbey, and he replies because he is looking for a wondrous shield. They tell him the legend of the shield which is that; "no man can bear it on his arm without meeting ill-fortune within three days. Yet it also said that whosoever can bear this shield shall achieve the quest of the Holy Grail." Then King Bagdemagus said the the next day he would take the shield and for Sir Galahad to stay at the Abbey to be there if King Bagdemagus were to return. The next day King Bagdemagus rides into the forest with the wondrous shield. He had not made it two miles before he saw a white knight who stuck him through the shoulder. The white knight would not give his name but told King Bagdemagus squire to bring the shield back to Sir Galahad. He rode back to the Abbey and gave the shield to Sir Galahad. Sir Galahad takes it and rides into the forest. He sees the white knight who tells him how the shield was brought to england. Then the white knight left. Later the squire who had followed Sir Galahad into the forest asked if he could make him a knight and to let him ride with him on his quest. He also says that his name is Melyas and that his father is the king of denmark. Sir Galahad decides to let him stay on his quest and they ride on.

Sir Melyas chose to go down the left side, the side that he "must win through, if he can, by showing his own strength and prowess." However, Sir Galahad chose to take the easier path, the left-hand side of the road where he, "comes easily to his journey's end, but by no prowess of his own. As Sir Melyas rode deep into the forest, he saw a rich pavillion standing with no one it it, and inside it was a golden crown hanging on a throne, and a banquet set out on the table. He started walking towards it when suddenly a knight shouted at him to put down the crown, and for him to defend himself. The knight smote Sir Melyas from his horse, took the crown, and rode away, which left him almost dead. The road that Sir Galahad took also led to the pavillion, where he saw a strange knight smite Sir Melyas, then ride away.
