"You don't seem stupid to me, and believe me, I've known some stupid people," Morgan said with a laugh.
Her strokes were gentle as she eased a tangle out of Dina's hair.

Dina smiled. "I doubt that they are as clumsey as I." She muttered.

"Are youi? I don't know you well, but surely you could learn to be more graceful if that worries you. You just have to take things more slowly."

"I have tried." Dina admitted. "I just forget to be of grace as my mother put it. But I do not mind being accident prone, those that know me know that I cannot change and I think they do not mind it."
She was quiet a moment. "Are you worried about leading the men on your own Lady Morgan?"

Morgan smiled.
"Not much. I feel that my status as the king's sister and my powers as a sorceress will prevent any trouble from the men I travel with. I know that men respect confidence so that is the face I will show them. After all, I have probably seen things they can only dream of, with the exception of Lancelot and Galahad, who were raised in Avalon for a time as boys."

Elsewhere, Taliesin stretched, pacing back and forth to regain his ground legs. He set his lute and flute on the bed and the satchel of his clothes in the corner. Looking out the window, he gazed upon the beauty of Avalon.

When Taliesin looked out the window, he could see a group of the younger druids talking together. Merewyn was among them, as were a couple of the knights from Camelot. Taliesin's Beltane partner was flirting with Sir Sagramore and giggling at something he said.

Taliesin cocked an eyebrow. He knew that Merewyn didn't love him, but Sagramore? "The man is hardly the stuff of song," Taliesin said as he picked up his instruments, strapped on his tankard and left his room.

"They are a funny pair are they not? I cannot figure them out. Sir Lancelot was talking to me on the ferry and I felt that Sir Galahad was watching us all the time. Almost asifhe disapproved of me speaking to his brother."

"Oh. Maybe he did. Maybe Sir Galahad does not like women very much. My sister Morgause tried to flirt with him once and he rebuffed her because he felt it was out of keeping with his Christian faith. Morgause told me afterwards, she was most put out," Morgan said with a laugh.
She slid the brush down through Dina's hair.
"Tell me, did you like Sir Lancelot?"

Dina shrugged. "I did not dislike him. He is a very nice man and I think will make someone very happy one day." She answered.

"Oh, but not yourself?" Morgan teased . "Is your heart set on another? Or still untouched?"

Dina shook her head. "There is another that I like, anda different one that likes me." She said softly. "I do not wish to offend anyone so I want to stay alone."

"But it is the way of the noble lady to marry. The only other choice really is to enter a convent and that would be dreadfully dull, especially for a pagan."
Morgause paused to work on a difficult tangle. When she'd got it out she resumed in a softer, more soothing voice.
"So tell me, if you will, who is the man who likes you, and who is the one that you favour?"

"It is Sir Gawain that likes me." Dina answered slowly. "He is nice enough, if a little sure of himself."
She didn't divulge who she liked though, aware that Morgan was close to both men.
