I cannot answer everything yet but here's what I got : This Artoria is a "what-if" version of herself. In the context of this arc, she's refered as Lion King by most of the cast, and Avatar of Rhongomyniad at least once by Bedivere. The "Lion King" part is most likely because everyone, since they are supposed to be in the 1200s, thought she was Richard the Lionheart at first.

Bedivere indeed never return Excalibur back to the Lady of the Lake in this continuity, and he continues to live on by sheer willpower. I don't know if that's the reason why Artoria is here tho, I myself needs to know why Camelot was "revived" in the the Middle East during the Crusades Era.

As for "where did the Excalibur go then?" question... Look at Bedivere's right arm. There it is (courtesy of Merlin it seems)
