[ hubbub of the town ]

AGLOVALE :

Kay's as pleasant as ever.

GALAHAD : 

Maybe he was in a bad mood?

AGLOVALE : 

He’s always in a bad mood, Galahad.

Alright.

I don’t need your assistance anymore, for now.

Thank you for your efficiency,

and your patience regarding the situation.

GALAHAD : 

...What are you going to do now?

About Percival, I mean.

He said it himself, he knows nothing about knighthood.

I don't think he knows anything about all the tensions between each family, either.

That could make him an easy target.

AGLOVALE : 

You seem very worried about him.

Are you perhaps interested in him?

( Maybe I could arrange something. )

GALAHAD : 

No, sir.

But, 

like you, I know how it feels to bear the weight of the expectations...

... that come with a prestigious lineage.

AGLOVALE : 

...

I'll take all necessary steps, Galahad.

GALAHAD : 

I don’t doubt it, sir.

AGLOVALE : 

At any rate, you did an excellent job.

You may return to Bors' side.

Send him my regards.

GALAHAD : 

… Yes, sir.

I’ll just miss questing with you,

because you make me laugh.

AGLOVALE : 

Off with you. 

Go, instead of making fun of me.

GALAHAD : 

Haha, I’m going, I’m going!

AGLOVALE : 

Squires these days…

No respect at all…

( Percival.

Everything will be alright,

you’ll see. )

PERCIVAL : 

… Thank you.

( stare )

?? : 

Ah!

Looks like you’re doing a bit better now.

PERCIVAL : 

Uh, yes.

?? : 

Here, eat this.

They’re homemade crispels. 

PERCIVAL : 

Thank you…

?? : 

You still look a bit shaken.

Does this kind of attack happen often?

PERCIVAL : 

Often… ?

I’m not sure.

( Yummy <3 )

My mother told me all I've got to do is focus on what I need to do. 

I just lack rigor.

?? : 

Hm. Far be it from me to question your mother’s teachings, lad,

but these kind of things happen quite often around here,

and focusing on what you need to do at a time like that is pretty much impossible.

PERCIVAL : 

Does it happen often? Even to knights?

?? : 

Especially to knights.

The war didn't end all that long ago, you know.

Many knights are still feeling the aftershocks.

The way I see it, that’s why Lancelot is impossible to find these days.

It’s not easy to deal with one’s pain, even in peacetime.

As for Tristan…

Nah, I think he just forgets to check his mail.

PERCIVAL : 

Who are these people?

?? : 

Well, you're not from around here, are you?

Oh, but where did my manners go? I didn’t even introduce myself.

I am Gawain of Orkney,

and this is my brother, Mordred.

What’s your name, my dear little Welshman?

PERCIVAL : 

I’m⎯

AGLOVALE : 

Percival! 

GAWAIN : 

… I thought as much, actually.

There's the family look about you,

and a strong Welsh accent.

AGLOVALE : 

Percival, let’s go.

GAWAIN : 

Come on. ~

It's pretty rude of you to ignore me.

You could at least look at me, O King of Listenoise.

AGLOVALE :

I'm not interested in granting you any measure of importance.

But it would be in your best interest

not to have done anything to him.

GAWAIN : 

Oh?

Is that a threat?

MORDRED : 

( trembles )

Gawain…

GAWAIN : 

… Percival, is that it?

PERCIVAL : 

Y-yes.

GAWAIN : 

Will you tell him what I did to you?

PERCIVAL :

Nothing… Well, no, she helped me.

I didn’t feel so good and…

I was lucky that she was there.

GAWAIN : 

I assume you’re disappointed?

Given that this isn’t the excuse you were looking for.

AGLOVALE : 

Let’s go, Percival.

PERCIVAL : 

Y-yes.

Thank you.

And the cookies were very tasty.

GAWAIN : 

You’re welcome, little one. <3 

Nothing to add, my dear king of Listenoise?

AGLOVALE : 

Be glad I tolerate you as you are, Sir Gawain.

GAWAIN : 

As I am?

AGLOVALE : 

Alive.

GAWAIN : 

Hah! How dramatic.

PERCIVAL : 

You know, I wasn't lying.

She really did help me.

AGLOVALE : 

I'm not doubting you,

I'm doubting her intention

There are tensions between our two families.

PERCIVAL : 

Tensions?

AGLOVALE : 

… You see, fifteen years ago,

Gawain murdered our father.

It’s possible she only approached you because you’re part of our family.

PERCIVAL : 

But…

How could she have known I was part of your family? 

I only learned about it recently myself.

AGLOVALE : 

You look a lot like someone.

PERCIVAL : 

Like who? 

AGLOVALE : 

Your other brother, 

Lamorak.
