King Arthur and his best knight, Sir Gawain, have to answer the age-old question: what do women want? Oh, and if King Arthur doesn't find the definitive answer within a year, he'll be executed. Hijinks ensue.
The creature is Nalusa Falaya, an evil porcupine who will turn you into an unwitting sleeper agent against your own family.

This tale is much like Shrek’s. Forgoing my favorite character, Donkey, we have a Nobel knight saving a cursed woman. To save King Arthur’s head from Sir Gromer Sooner Joure, Sir Gawain agrees to marry Dame Ragnelle. This agreement is prompted by a promise that the king made to Sir Gromer in which he answers one question, “What do women want?”. A year goes by and no luck with finding a satisfactory answer a hideous hag offers to save the king’s head under one condition. The condition is she’ll be the answer the king so desperately longs for only if she can marry the great Knight Sir Gawain. Sir Gawain agrees. The answer she gives is that all women want is sovereignty. Since the answer was correct, the king is saved and the Dame is married. After the ceremony, half of her curse is uplifted. It turns out the hideous women Sir Gawain married is actually beautiful. She can only be beautiful at night or during the day and it’s his choice to choose which one he prefers. Well like all good stories, Sir Gawain chooses to grant Dame Ragnelle’s sovereignty and states it’s her choice. Her curse is completely uplifted and all is well.
