Lancelot & the Lady*

A Story by Abishai100
"

An adventure tale of modern proportion(s) featuring iconic Medieval reference, and a 'modern' wolfish evildoer.

"
A modernized 'spin' on some of the characterizations of the Medieval lore of that 'inventive' faerie-tale kingdom of Camelot. Enjoy!

You know of that ancient legend of the controversial swordsman of complications/intrigue (Lancelot), as you (maybe) know of the Camelot-age mysticism aura of the mythical 'Lady of the Lake' who bore the magical-authority to keep-secret that sword-mystery (Excalibur) that hoisted the 'celebrity' of King Arthur and his goodly-traveled Knights of the Round-Table (hmm). However, what you may not think/know/realize is that Lancelot was thought to have a special 'bond' with the Lady of the Lake, given his special 'interest' for swords-and-ladies, casting him as a sort of wandering 'faerie' or messenger of the strength/complication(s) of kingdom-sovereignty 'examination(s)' (for the Ego).



Well, Lancelot and that mythical Lake-Lady were now reincarnated, on modern-Earth (21st-Century) as a goodly Windy-City citizen/vigilante (Amlan Satan) and a Courtyard (hotel) concierge of great charm (Ezzy O'Hara) and were working (together!) on a cyber-media storyboard about a 'special' 2005 Homeland (American) college-media (basketball!) 'chess-stalemate' diagram of conference 'micro-rivalry' lore for sportsmanship-marketing concerning traffic-confidence and net-activity 'rhetoric' for antiterrorism/capitalism.

SATAN: Perhaps this college chess imagery concerns the 'bonds' of capitalism?
O'HARA: It's a certain conjecture of games; Homeland's reading for bread-IQ.



Satan was staying with Ezzy at her establishment in the challenged Windy-City of Bulls-Bears markets and considered their joint-venture for sports-media drawn antiterrorism-superstition storyboards (for traffic/infrastructure ornamentation in Western civilization!) a reflection of the 'excellence' in capitalism-race 'consciousness' for their social-media age, and rumors flew (really) that the two were courting a special relationship inside that 'American' establishment (good for social media).



EZZY: Maybe we are falling for each other, Lancelot.
AMLAN: I had a dream I was Lancelot in the past-life; and you the Lake-Lady.
EZZY: I saw a fortune-teller in the big-city and was told this was truth!
AMLAN: About me being Lancelot?
EZZY: No you vigilante-dude; about me being the Lake-Lady (wow).
AMLAN: I'm gonna 'spice' our athletics-board with a fashion-image for bread.
EZZY: Some kind of treasure-insurance chess reading for the Windy-City.
AMLAN: Diamond-ads are being 'sullied' by world-traffic woes with piracy.



Magic was fated inside that Courtyard, for Satan/O'Hara blended a cool mix of sportsmanship/superstition for the Homeland concerns of antiterrorism/commerce in the challenged Windy-City wow). Who'd guess Amlan/Ezzy were (arguably!) Lancelot and 'his' Lady from their Medieval age of great 'incomplete-distances' to infrastructural securities 'matter' (for remedies to absolute terror)?



JOURNAL: "Interceptions of (rumored) conflict-zone gems smuggled into North America for Mardi-Gras casts the intelligentsia/citizens of Homeland capitalism 'chess' as James Bond like 'fans' of commercial life vanities handshakes (for 'medieval' bonds)."



Well, Lancelot and 'his' Lady (Satan/O'Hara) were in for a real treat in adventurism/patriotism in this Homeland of incomplete-imagery concerning everyday-life and traffic-vanities for commercial confidence/heat. However, their 'castle' (Courtyard) had become a 'fantastic' WiFi 'station' for the resourcing of imagery/information required to create a superstition 'linked' capitalism-race 'chess' defense for all that was a Western lore for fortune's matter (for bread).



However, a new threat arose in this Homeland sky/night, and it was a serial-killer known eerily as the Night_Slasher who mimicked a real 'cinema-villain' for some bizarre/deformed social-media message about homegrown hellmouth(s), and he read the college-basketball story made by Amlan/Ezzy and decided (secretly!) that they were Lancelot and the Lady-of-the-Lake reincarnated and decided to stalk them and mark them for bloody-murder (hmm).

NIGHT SLASHER: "This is my prince-hell; and I'm the 'elf' of Xmas-Netflix."



EZZY: Thanx for rescuing me from the Courtyard basement, Lancelot.
AMLAN: Why would I fail in such a 'medieval' consciousness, my Lady?
EZZY: That 'Night Slasher' had be tied/pinned as a doll-for-effigy (no?).
AMLAN: Forget; enjoy thanksgiving-brunch (Indian) luchi-bread (for spirits).
EZZY: All's a 'fare' for Chicago's (reading) misery.
AMLAN: Excellence (and pity).
