[Merlin clears his throat, steading the journal in front of him.]

I would like to say that the Lady Morgana has just arrived in Luceti. [He pauses, trying to begin again with less strain within his voice.] I would hope that people could try and help her adjust to captiv--life, here.

[It is perhaps a pointless formality, but Merlin is feeling guilty about a number of things. Chiefly, how he had last seen the Uther's ward before being dragged into this world. Luckily, it looked as though Morgana was from well before that day. But he was also feeling guilty about the kind of life Morgana was now thrust into--and without Gwen, although she had been here so recently.]

Also...[now more self-conscious than strained. Also, I was wondering if anyone could provide some kind of lesson or instruction for the devices that have recently appeared in the kitchen.

[He wants to provide a proper meal for the apartment's newest resident. Something beyond the bread and cheese that has been sustaining Merlin. He hasn't yet tried to conquer the stove.]

I don't know how people do as well. It does seem like a while to be away from what you know.

[awaitingalbion.livejournal.com]

And from the responsibilities you have, as well. Camelot shouldn't be without its prince for so long.

[telepathicchaos.livejournal.com]

That would be a dilemma. My position is not quite so important.

[awaitingalbion.livejournal.com]

Well, not all of us can be princes--but that doesn't mean we're not important.

[telepathicchaos.livejournal.com]

True, but the decisions I make do not affect so many. [Quite a large number, but probably fewer than a prince.]

[awaitingalbion.livejournal.com]

But they do affect someone?

[telepathicchaos.livejournal.com]

Yes, I'm fairly sure that they do.

[awaitingalbion.livejournal.com]

Then you probably are important. [By his definition, at least.]

[telepathicchaos.livejournal.com]

Yes, I guess that is true. [Though not in a good way.]
