After she had her heart broken by good ol’ Gal through a miscommunication (he wasn’t actually being terrible he’s improved mightily since she found him at the bottom of a beer barrel), she acquiesced unhappily to the wedding. Season 2 picked up with Isabella being held hostage by her family, who were forcing her to marry her cousin, the child-king of another kingdom. A lot of twists and turns ensue, but long story short they ended the season in love but separated. Galavant’s in really poor shape-one of the running gags of the first few episodes is a skewering of the traditional fantasy hero, constantly showing him to be selfish, vain, and at this point at least quite rusty in the fighting department-so Isabella, an impressive warrior in her own right, whips him into shape.
He is recruited by the Princess Isabella ( Karen David) to help her regain her kingdom.
