King Urien sired Ywain the Bastard on the wife of his seneschal. He is a hearty and sensible warrior. His death comes at the hands of his cousin Gawain, ironically during the Quest for the Holy Grail. The two meet, disguised by their armor, and decide to joust. Ywain is mortally wounded and it is not until Gawain takes him to a hermitage for his last rites that he realizes he had killed his own cousin.
