After their return from the kingdom of the Fay, Arthur gathered his companions together as they prepared to set out for Cornwall.

Dina had swapped her normal clothes for breeches and a shirt, that was comfy and easier for her to move. She had her bow and quiver of arrows across her and kept her hair up and out her way.
She seemed happier now that they had left the Isle of the Fay.

Arthur smiled at her.
"You look very pretty like that," he said. "I almost prefer you dressed as an archer than as a lady. Is that strange?"

Dina went a deep red.
"Thank you Your Grace." She said looking down at her feet. She was wearing her old leather boots that were faded and supple. "I could hardly travel were I dressed as a lady."

"I suppose not. Long skirts would be cumbersome. Morgan made the same choice as you, I know, and at least that way neither of you will be preyed on by wandering knights or bandits. A gowned lady is a much more obvious target."

"I would like to see them try and prey on me Your Grace." Dina said, she picked a bit of dust from where it had settled on her bow.

"And I hope you won't mind if I say I hope you never have to find that out," Arthur replied solemnly. "Though I will enjoy seeing how well you hunt with that bow."

"Maybe you can join me one time that I hunt Sire." Dina replied with a smile "When we need food obviously."

As the group continued with their preparations for the journey Tristram moved towards Arthur.
"Sire, does my uncle know we are visiting Cornwall? I am sure he will want to receive you in a manner befitting the High King of Britain and those preparations take time. I suggest we send my good friend and faithful companion Sir Dinadan ahead to Tintagel informing my uncle of our imminent arrival."

"I would be honored to act as you messenger, your grace." Dinadan added, from Tristram's side.

"Perhaps I will but I'm no archer," Arthur said. "I prefer hunting with spears."
He turned to the Cornishmen.
"That would have been a good idea, if it was our group travelling to Cornwall. We are heading to Cambernic. Morgan's group is going to Cornwall."

Tristram's face fell briefly. He had been hoping to distinguish himself by helping Arthur find whatever he sought in Cornwall.
"Very good Sire." he eventually said, glancing at Dinadan with dismay.
"I would hope that Morgan has the foresight to let my uncle know of her arrival beforehand."

"I am sure she will do so," Arthur said smoothly. "And even if the letter does not arrive, I know King Mark will welcome my sister and her companions with open arms, as is his duty as a great king. It will be a great honour to any man who has the chance to host any of us on this quest."

"Somehow I doubt King Rion will see it as such an honor, Your Grace." Merlin quipped lightly.
The sorcerer was once again comfortably in his worn brown robes and welcomed them gladly.

Dina bit her lip at Merlins words.
"Can we not make him see that it is an honour?" She asked the group at whole.
