Note to recorder:

Can you please read slowly? thank you

I know I am being very difficult, would it be possible to have a British accent? thank you!

A long time ago, the king of Britain, Uther, married Igraine. They had a son born at Tintagel Castle, and called him Arthur. At the time, Britain was attacked by the Saxons, so, to protect him, Uther gave Arthur to Merlin, his wizard. Arthur grew with Sir Ector, his adoptive father, and Kay, his foster brother.
But Uther died, and Britain was left without a king. Nobody knew Arthur was his son, except Merlin. To decide who could become king, Merlin put a mysterious stone in the churchyard of St Paul's Cathedral in London. In the stone, was a huge sword, which bore the inscription "whoever pulls the sword from the stone is to become high king of Britain". Lots of knights and lords tried to pull it off, but nobody could.
When Arthur turned 15, Kay aged 18, went to participate in his first tournament in London. Arthur was in charge of his sword but he forgot it at home. So Kay urged him to find one. He found the sword in the stone and pulled it out easily. When Kay read the message, he understood Arthur was to become king of Britain. Everyone was amazed.
