A Woman's Duty [Lisa]

[mysery]

If it wasnt for the presence of the Knights, though that was little of a deterrant for her in reality, and all the servants who had been watching, Morgana would have slapped, punched or just generally stabbed that smirk off Arthur's face when he informed her he had duties with the knights, Uther had duties in council, and so she had been given the lovely duty of making a greeting style visit to Lady Lisa Kentura who was residing in the castle. Arthur had been so bloody smug, and sure, and arrogant about it being a womans duty to do the greeting and chatter that Morgana had wanted nothing more than to drop him right there in front of everyone. The one thing she hated more than a cocky man, was a cocky Arthur.

Now she wasnt vindictive. It wasnt that Morgana had anything against the other woman, they'd met briefly but had exchanged naught but a few words and she seemed nice, but she resented the implication from Arthur that day time chamber visits were a woman's area alone. That it was for her to go and gossip and giggle and chatter.

Morgana didnt like most of the women at court, with a few exceptions. It mostly stemmed from one of three things. They either only spoke to her because of her title and place beside the King, or they only spoke to her as a way to get in with Arthur. And last but not least, her personal favourite, they looked down their noses at her because they saw her as competition. Ha! As if she'd ever have Arthur. They were all welcome to him!

Though she had been itching to wipe the smirk off his face physically, she had to settle for a few well placed barbs before she spun on her heel and stalked off through the corridors of the castle. She'd get him back at a later date. Like.... when he next went practicing with all the knights as an audience and she happened to show up in a tunic and pants and decided to knock him on his ass.

And so now she found herself arriving at the doors to Lisa's chambers and Morgana paused. She took a few moments to swallow her irritation, after all it wasnt the other womans fault, and composed herself. Another moment and she released a breath before knocking on the door. Time to get this over with.

One day at home, she received a message via carrier that she was requested at the castle along with her mother to be present for her father's presentation of a medal of chivalry and his loyalty to Camelot. Lisa nodded to the messenger and gave her thanks and she smiled. After opening the letter she realized what the man had said was indeed true. And she would be staying at the castle for the week prior to the ceremonies to help prepare or to help prepare herself and join in meals with the royal family and to receive special privileges during this week.

All of this was in the name of her father's recieval of the award. Her father had gotten a couple of these. And she would be glad that she might be able to see her childhood friend Raieyana as she heard that she had come for the cermony as well.

For since she arrived, she hadn't been able to see her much because each time she went in search of Raieyana , she found that she was on an errand here or there.

She got up and was greeted by the Lady in waiting that was assigned to her. The woman's name was Indred. And she had been helping guests at the castle for years now. She was glad to have help but she missed her own Lady in waiting Anna which had been with her basically since she came back a year and a half ago. She nodded in response to the Good Morning. "Good Morning"She said as she looked to her.

After she saw the curtains drawn back and opened she got up and went to the dressing curtain and saw a dress had already been picked out for her. This was a relief...Normally, she would have to call Anne to come back and help her...Which was sometimes a pain, but she was family after all so she didn't complain. Putting on the light blue satin gown, she nodded, "So what is on the agenda today Indred?"She asked curiously.

Lisa then heard a knock on the door and she got up and walked over to it and saw Morgana,"Hello..."She paused as she realized who it was..."Morgana ...Its been a long while.."She said as she looked at her.

Morgana inclined her head respectfully, as one would expect, when Lisa herself opened the door and greeted her. "Lady Lisa," she greeted with a smile. "King Uther and Prince Arthur wanted me to come and see how you were settling in," Morgana added, mentally plotting how she was going to make Arthur suffer for his impromtu 'duties' today. One of the few days he decides to actually be a Prince.

"They apologise for not being able to come and see you themselves. They both have duties to attend to," Morgana finished, the smile never slipping. If Gwen had been with her, she knew her maid and friend would have seen straight through that smile, to the revenge plotting plans beneath. Just another reason she liked Gwen, even if she didnt call Morgana up on it.

Often she provided her an outlet for all her evil, Arthur embarrassing plans when she couldnt put them into action and she smiled and nodded or agreed. Sometimes Guinevère was the only thing that talked Morgana out of them too. What she wouldnt do without her friend.

"May I come in?" Morgana asked finally, noticing Lisa had a maid in her room also. No doubt the one she had been assigned for her stay in Camelot.
