During his journey, D’Artagnan is faced with three duals that were back to back. To his surprise, all three men are part of the musketeers. He is taken under their wing and fights with the disbanded men as they escape being arrested for refusing to relinquish their duties. Athos, Porthos, Aramis and D’Artagnan set out to protect the king from Cardinal Richelieu’s evil plans of becoming King of France.

His lonesome trip is shortly lived as he upsets three men and ends up with three duels back to back. The three men he is to duel are later found out to be three disbanded musketeers, Athos, Porthos and Aramis. As the men prepare themselves to duel, the men are attacked by the cardinal’s army. This is the first sign of unity taken place in the film.

This proves his loyalty towards the king and the musketeers because he is willing to put his life at risk in order to do what is right. He vows to protect and serve the king regardless of the repercussions. Not only does this prove his loyalty, but it also shows his commitment to stay united with the three musketeers.
