The ceremony itself had gone very well, and now with Arthur officially as King, Lucan couldnât help but feel some relief. He was watching not just a Prince grow into a King, but also a friend growing into his new role. Not that heâd need any help â Arthur had done well for himself so far, even if heâd had support. He looked more of a King now and appeared to be taking every moment in his stride. Lucan didnât blame him.
Yvain appeared to be enjoying himself as they all stood in a group, chatting away. Lucan was scanning the hall to see if there were any familiar faces he knew. In fact there were lots. One of them being Merlin, who was busy trailing around after Arthur as well as trying to talk to some of his friends.
Then there was Guinevère â Sir Elyanâs sister, looking very pretty. Sheâd nursed Lucan back to health when heâd been injured during the dragon attack. He hadnât had much contact with her after that. Elyan himself was busy chatting away in their group to Erec.
âWellâ¦what a day!â Yvain looked to Luc with a grin, âHe made it!â his friend looked over to Arthur.
âI knowâ Lucan smiled to himself, âHe certainly suits the roleâ
Yvain gave him a look, âerrâ¦well, he is the Prince and he wouldâve become King eventually â wellâ¦he has now but you know what I meanâ
âYouâre just a confusing manâ Lucan slapped him on the back, âanyway â this is just an excuse for you to drink as much as you like and dance and stare at pretty girls for most of the eveningâ
Yvain looked at Lucan in shock, âOf course it isnât!â. Lucan didnât believe him of course. âAnyway, I donât see you asking any girl to danceâ he replied defensively. Well that was obvious.
âAnd I donât see any girls near me â so there you goâ
âThatâs not a valid answer â you can go up to a girl and ask her, not wait for her to come overâ
âIm not waiting!â Lucan growled. âFor goodness sake! I donât have girls drawn to me as much as you do so just drop the subject, get on over there and ask Lady Anne to dance and leave me aloneâ with a roll of the eyes, he watched as Yvain shook his head and left the group.
Lucan turned back to the rest of his friends. Determined to enjoy tonight how he wanted to, without anyone telling him otherwise.
