A knight was sentenced to death by Queen Guinevere for forcing himself upon a woman, but was given a one year reprieve to discover what women truly want. After asking many women to no avail, an old woman told the knight she knew the answer if he did as she instructed. She revealed that women want power and equality in relationships. As reward for answering correctly, the old woman transformed into a young, beautiful, and faithful wife for the knight, with whom he lived happily.
