[The feed is only voice this time, betraying no emotions. Feel free to have noticed that he has holed up in Loki for the duration of the event and not been out of his room for more than work for a while before that.]

I am looking for musicians. More specifically, I have sheet music for flute, harp and guitar. There are also a few pieces that include fiddle or singing voice. Is anyone here interested in launching an ensemble? I'd rather hope to find ones trained well in their field, though that is not strictly necessary.

Gwenhwyfar, I have it now. Tell me when you would like to come over. [A harp is just way too heavy to carry it around town just to visit someone, and not really the instrument that should be dragged into the middle of a forest.]

I'm also looking for sword classes, now that I can afford them. I know there's the Citadel, but are there any other places or is that the only option?

[And then Bran's voice turns carefully composed and bland - it is clear that an effort is made to keep all emotions out of the words. He does not want to show sadness or fear, it would make him seem weak and an easy target. He learned early on that that is a very bad idea.]

Also, Will Stanton of house Odin left, in case that is of interest to anyone.

I know now only music from my own home, but this is something which interests me. Might I ask what kind of music?

I'm not sure with most of it; I was looking for pieces that I know and found quite a few, those are mostly from my home, but there were a lot of pieces in the same section from composers that I had never heard of.

I would think there would be much music not recognizable to many of us, yes? But it is good that some are familiar.

Do you play an instrument?

[Stop skidding around the topic, wow]

Several, with greatly varying degrees of skill, you understand.

[ They could both start doing this dance. ]

[He'll only avoid direct answers when he has something to hide. What is up with you.]

That would usually have to be expected, if you picked up a lot of them over the years and learned some well. Is any of the ones that I was asking for among them?

[ That's his line, actually. ]

The fiddle, yes? And some kinds of flute, or an instrument similar to it. We call it a kaval. Also, the guitar, but only a little.

I do not yet teach in the Citadel and I am quite qualified with a sword. I am certain there are others like myself.

[ a smile. ]

Do you play?

You must play a lot of instruments. [If between those five, there are already three hits.]

Only a few. [ He says this as casually as possible. ]

I play the harp. On a rather high level. [What with performing at the national festival and things like that.]

Would you teach me? I should probably count as a beginner for the purpose of this. [He's held a sword before - he has it with him, though it changed upon arrival - but there is a difference between handling a magical sword and a normal one.]

[He's amused, even though that won't be audible.]

Do you have a number?

It would be a little bit difficult to say - I have tried my hand at many things over the years. [ The many, many, many years. ]

That sounds like you must have been rather bored. [Or like he at least had way too much time on him.]

Bored? No, I spend very little time being bored. [ Precisely this. ]

Truly? Shall you play for us Travelers then? When you have your fellow musicians?

[ a tilt of her head; she is far too used to Camelot, in which she is an exception. A woman who knows the sword. With men like Lancelot and Arthur present his request is very unusual.

Though not at all unwelcome. ]

If you'd like. You'll have to work hard, practice quite a bit; but I suppose one has learned how to play a harp knows the burden of practicing a skill.

Because you try out a new instrument every time that boredom approaches?

Among a number of other things, yes.

That might be so if there should be a place and time for it. [He won't organize anything, but if things should come up...]

I understand it. [A simple agreement, neither petulence nor any other negative note tied to it.] Shall we agree on a time and place and try out if we can work with each other well enough for this to work out?

[Still, he must have not had much else to do... or. There is a fleeting though - what number of instruments might Will, or his biological father, or any others from that world have the chance to learn in their endless lifetime...]

How many years have you lived since you were born?

[ There's a pause here. ]

Oh, I can't remember exactly. Quite a few!

Please. And I will have your name, too.

[ inclining her head. ]

I am Morgana Pendragon, of Camelot.

[...oh. Hi. He didn't expect that. But the surprise will be hidden behind dark glasses, only his silence betraying a bit off it.] Bran Davies, of Gwynned.

When are you free?

I don't have an instrument here, but I can play the violin.

Will-san is a friend of yours?

[ If she notices the short silence she takes no notice of it. ]

It is a pleasure, Bran of Gwynned. I shall be free whenever you would like me to be. My days have not been eventful, as of last.

[ waking up from days and days of cursed sleep left her, ironically, mostly in bed rest which she is now becoming quite tired of. ]
