First Quest [Video]

[knight_of_the_lake]

[The camera comes on and one can see the Chess Kingdom, a town in the Kingdom actually. White, black, and gray patters make up all of the buildings and even the ground. It moved to capture a glimpse at Sir Lancelot as he continues to walk and complain to himself.]

I will find this dryad and force him to send me back. I will not allow some false god to presume he may summon me whenever he likes. I must return to Camelot.

But Sir Knight, it is impossible. The will of the God Tree is absolute.

This god tree, as you call him, will fall by my blade. I will not stand for his. I will return home and continue my vigilance for my King.

Such honor and loyalty you have! Truly you are worthy of being my Tamer! Come sir! Together we may smite the evil that plagues this world and you shall then be able to return to your world!

[Lancelot stops and slowly turns around.]

Speak more of this evil.

[Before you hear further, the camera cuts out.]

No worry furry. Sarasim will set you up with a scheduled so you're not always on nightshift.

[There's a cough from a goblimon down the bar and Lorne sighs]

There's just one last thing. All new tenants and workers have to sing for me so I know you're on the level. It's not that I don't trust you, we've just had some bad experiences. You understand?

Re: [action]

[knight_of_the_lake]

Singing is how you can see the past and future of people, isn't it? Very well.

I know only a small number of songs, however. And none are like the one you sang before.

Hey don't let that hold you back, we're very accepting of all kinds of music in my humble bar. Just do whatever you're comfortable with.

Re: [action]

[knight_of_the_lake]

Very well.

[Lancelot thought back to one song he knew well. He began to sing. It was one of the lullaby's The Lady of the Lake would sing to him when he was a child. He kept his tone deeper and slow, just letting the lyrics come back with the memories of those days.]

[There's some scattered applause and Lorne wipes a tear from his eye pouring Lance a drink despite him not asking for one]

Love it, absolutely. I can see why people still tell stories of you where I come from. *Laughs cheerfully* Here's to our newest resident and protector!

[A general round of cheers is called out and glasses clinked]

[Lancelot stares at the drink for a moment before slowly taking it.]

Thank you for your generosity. I will most likely be spending most of my time away from the inn but I will be here for my watches.

Why did you let free a tear during my reading?

Re: [action]

[eatatjoesaura]

Not a problem, no problem at all. We'll be happy to be your home when you find your way back to it after travels.

[Chuckles] Oh that. Nothing to worry about, I'm just a sucker for a good love story. Still I wouldn't want to spoil too much for you.

[knight_of_the_lake]

Love-...

[Lancelot's eyes move to his drink before he takes a long drink from it.]

Thank you for your generosity.

Hey don't even mention it, mi casa es su Casa and all that jazz!

[raises his glass]

To new friends and bright futures!

[He raises his own glass and takes another drink before setting down his glass.]
