    Summary

    In which Gawain dies and is, thereafter, given the chance to live.

    “My Lord,” he says, closing his eyes and bowing his head. “My thanks, always, for what you provide for me here.”

    “My Knight.” That voice, Gawain can no longer pretend it does not roil into his gut with a fierceness. “I provide you nothing that is not yours to take.”

    There is a touch upon Gawain’s face, a hand against his skin. He leans into it, and then the Lord is gone.

    Summary

    “You might have made a fine ruler,” Bertilak said, rising as their vessel collided with the shore.

    “That is true,” Gawain said cautiously, tethering the boat to the base of the cross, “but I am no warrior. To rule in this land is to bring ruin.”

    “Better you had died, then, in order to spare countless lives?” Bertilak asked. “You would have made a martyr of yourself like Winifred.”

    “Yes,” Gawain said, helping Bertilak out of the boat. “What a queer pair of ghosts we’d be.”

    Bertilak sighed, spreading his arms wide. “Lead on, though thy thwarted fate awaits thee.”

    “Death is not the thwarted fate I seek,” Gawain said, grabbing Bertilak’s hand, tired of waiting.
