He was always such a charmer. Even when he was a teenager. I wasn't old enough to remember him when he was a kid, but I was sure he'd have gotten away with murder even then. The only problem was he loved to travel more than romance, and he could never hold a steady relationship with anyone, let alone mortals. 

I used to travel with him, watching him enchant famous women all over the world, even if they weren't famous at the time. But i couldn't believe that, in his haste, he'd go to Aunty Morgana. He knew that she'd loved him, he knew that she'd do anything to have him for herself, and now he was just handing himself over? Well, i didn't know that he'd give up himself in exchange for eternal life, but i did know it was the only thing Morgana would accept from him. 

"Why Scotland?" Ezekiel asked, dragging me away from my melancholic state. 

"What?" I asked, not really sure what he was asking. 

"Why would he go to Scotland?" He asked, making me realise that i hadn't told him that's where Morgana lived. 

"Scotland is one of the ancient lands," i said, "it's full of old magic. And that's where he was," i stopped, wondering how little he knew about Galahad. 

"Where he, what?" Cassandra asked, suddenly alert. 

"Where he was born," i quickly said, giving them most of the truth. "He probably thinks that it'll be a conductor to his youth." 

"I can just see it now," Ezekiel said, grinning, "a flash of green light and suddenly we have a pre-pubescent Jenkins walking around with a thousand years memory." he laughed at his own joke, and Cassandra smiled. I hit him in the side with my elbow, "This is serious Jones," i said. 

Ezekiel stopped, surprised that i'd used his surname. "Well, why don't we just go to Scotland and get him back?" 

"It's not as easy as that," I said. 

"Why not?" Ezekiel asked. 

"Because." 

"Because why not?"

"Because it could be dangerous."

"An old guy picking up seashells is dangerous."

"He's not old."

"He's not dangerous."

"Scotland is."

"No it's not."

"Yes it is, that's why he's never gone back there."

"Why now?"

"I don't know." 

"THEN WHY IS IT DANGEROUS MORDRED!?" 

"MORGANA LIVES THERE!"
