บท 73: Everyone gets punished, Sire

"You're late." Artie winced at Sir Gawain's bellow. She quickly took off her sword, placing it in the weapons rack meant for the knights who joined training, and joined the students lined up in front of him. 

"Sorry, sorry. I had some early morning work to do." The students stared as Sir Geraint and Sir Kay remained nearby. Sir Gawain glanced at them, his eyes sparkling. 

"Well, if you were doing work benefitting the kingdom, who am I to complain? However, you have two Knights here who are meant to be punished for shirking their duties, correct?" Artie knew exactly where he was going with this, and glanced at the two knights in question. Both men caught her look, before sighing, and they began to take off their own swords. That caused a wave of chattering amongst the young squires, and Sir Gawain shut them up with a glare. "Sir Kay, Sir Geraint, care to join us for our warm up?" Sir Gawain asked sweetly as Sir Geraint rolled his eyes.
