William decapitated the hag with his blade and quickly fled before anyone took notice. Onward he rode towards Camelot, and finally he arrived at the gates. Above him loomed the massive castle that housed King Arthur's court. Before him stood a gallant knight.
Good day, he said, What is your purpose here?
I wish to join King Arthur's knights at the Round Table, sir.
He's, uh, he's very busy at the moment.
No he's not.
Yes he is. He said it himself. No visitors; I'm very busy.
He was only jesting.
Oh, I see how it is. You think that just because I'm keeping watch at the gate, I'm not qualified to sit at the Round Table. Is that it? I bet you think me pretty dim-witted, do you not? I'll have you know I'm much smarter than Lancelot. He never even went to college.
And you did?
For Christ's sake, yes! Of course I went to college. Community, but still...
I bet it gets old, watching this stupid gate. Am I right?
Terribly.
And for one so qualified as yourself, it must be positively torturous.
Yes indeed.
Tell you what. I'll keep watch. You go into town. Go to headquarters and file a complaint.
Huh. I wasn't aware we had a headquarters.
Of course we have! Go on, they'll help reassign you.
