Lancelot/Lady: HighwayFolk

A Story by Abishai100
"

Arthurian 'icons' travel (twice) through-time and make for fortune-reading (treasure-IQ) 'chess' in an (eternal) Earth of piracy-butter.

"
A bright 'adaptation' of Plunkett & Macleane (Jake Scott) featuring 'iconic' characterizations from Arthurian legends. Happy Halloween,

Lancelot, complicated sword-knight of Camelot (Medieval-Euro), sought a time-travel adventure with his spirit-oracle counselor, the Lady of the Lake, who possessed the magic-crystal to offer this proposition-gift and become his special (secret!) ally for the mission.

LANCELOT: Perhaps there's an 'art(s)' for fortune-chess and intelligence?
LADY: Excellence (for mysteries); we'll make an 'image' for materialism.



They journeyed through-time, to 18th-Century England, where they'd become (costumed!) highway-folks, robbing from the Euro-aristocracy who'd been 'predecessors' to 21st-Century Earth 'blood-diamond' smugglers-highways for treasure-insurance corruption/veils. Was this an 'app' for modern (21st-Century) capitalism 'race' chess-commentary on social media (concerning 'incomplete-distances' to 'folk' bureaucracy)?



LANCELOT: We'll infiltrate an aristocrat-estate gathering with a safe.
LADY: Excellence (for mysteries); the mansion-safe contains treasure.



Lancelot created a special lab-made HCL substance (acidic!) for the burning of the lock-door side of the 18th-Century aristocratic-gathering where there were (special) treasures used for a 'toast' to that time's (secret) underground of criminal market exchange(s) (for journals).



LADY: Is this acid-substance safe for use (inside the estate)?
LANCELOT: There's a 'space' for utility with my creation in that lab.
LADY: Excellence (for mysteries); we've cast the 'image' of invention(s).
LANCELOT: For a 'safe' passage concerning history's vanities, my Lady.
LADY: Good (for social exchanges).



The aristocratic baron who hosted the event in his estate would someday be 'counted' in Earth-history when his lavish mansion was decided to be a 'monument' to 18th-Century design(s) and preserved for posterity, but Lancelot and the Lady had their own time-travel 'examination(s)' for this fortune-reading concerning those pesky 'incomplete-distances' to materialism-readings (for future-world capitalism-bureaucracy!).



LANCELOT: Shall we 'move' this treasure-lift to 21st-Century Earth?
LADY: We may offer this piece as a museum-education for gem-IQ.
LANCELOT: May serve as a unique 'remedy' for future fortune-chess?
LADY: In deed; fortune favors this shine, knight-man; we're linguists.
LANCELOT: For the Ego.



Lancelot and the Lady traveled (once-more) into time, landing in 21st-Century America, where they toasted their 'deeds' with a world-exchange reflective soft/zesty (Indian) luchi-bread thanksgiving-diner plate chat(s) and considered their 'dash' escape from the 18th-Century highway-folks harsh-detective (Mr. Chance) a 'vigilante' image for what made (eternal?) capitalism-race 'chess-stalemates' a hand-write for the 'image' of fortune's bureaucracy (for all).
