Arviragus and Guiderius Timeline and Summary

  • 3.3: The brothers talk to Belarius, their dad (or the guy they think is their dad), about wanting more adventure in their lives. We want some cool stories when we're old, they say. Then they run off to hunt.
  • 3.7: When a young boy shows up at their cave, Belarius, Arviragus, and Guiderius are confused. They become fast friends and learn to love Fidele (a.k.a. Imogen) shortly afterwards.
  • 4.2: Belarius, Arviragus, and Guiderius want to go hunting, but Imogen is sick, and they are worried. Arviragus and Guiderius even admit that they prefer young Imogen over their father. Ouch. They leave the cave, and Guiderius happens upon Cloten, who challenges Guiderius to a duel. After Guiderius wins, they bury Cloten and are sad to find that this isn't the only dead body they'll come across that day: Imogen has died, too. Arviragus and Guiderius are deeply saddened and give her a proper funeral.
  • 4.4: Arviragus and Guiderius want to fight the Romans who are invading, but Belarius isn't so sure. After much debate, the sons convince Belarius, and the three march off to join the battle.
  • 5.1: Belarius, Arviragus, and Guiderius save Cymbeline's life. Not only do they rescue him; they also win the war for Britain, with a little help from a disguised Posthumus.
  • 5.5: Belarius, Arviragus and Guiderius recognize Imogen and are somewhat confused, since they buried her and all. She explains about the potion, and they all rejoice together. Then more shocking news comes when Belarius comes clean about stealing the boys many years ago. Arviragus and Guiderius are happy to reunite with Imogen, and they're even happier that she's their sis.
