Now grown and married to the prince of his dreams, Sir Cedric recounts his fairytale adventures to his adopted daughter, Nia, showing her the paths and pitfalls that await her on the way to knighthood. Season 2 of The Bravest Knight reunites fans of the first season with their favourite group of fairytale heroes for even more action-packed adventures. Follow Nia as she continues her training for her biggest challenge yet: the Not-Yet-Knight Tournament. In the meantime, Sir Cedric continues recounting his own experiences as a Not-Yet-Knight, from meeting new friends and foes to searching for the elusive Dragon — again!

Episode Synopsis:
Nia needs to train for a big Not-Yet-Knight tournament, but can't seem to remember where she put her shield. What she finds instead is a story from Cedric about the time he was cap-tured by an organization of gnomes. Cedric explains that they were only able to escape with the help of a gnome named Cho, who joined their quest to take on The Dragon.
