Whilst listening to the Yankee's description of his story, Bastion arched both his eyebrows sharply. "Oh? Sounds like an adventure," he said. "It seems quite remarkable, actually." He wanted to ask more – about whether the Yankee's destiny was practically colonisation, whether his predecessor got any retribution for that – but all he wanted to ask seemed exactly like the sort of thing that would stir up a fight.

"Are the Camelotians still affected by all that today? I mean, most fairytales these days have been modernised. That's sort of the point with the Storybook, right? To put the same story with the same themes in a different time, to show the unchanging nature of humanity or whatever. Still, I can't help but feel a sense that those from Camelot seem a tad more... old-timey?"

Bas hoped that the Yankee would realise that as an observation, rather than a slight.

"Yep, just Pythia, me and Sage. Pythia's been doing debating with me since freshman year. We kinda got lumped together because of the whole 'villain legacies from not-so-villainous families thing'. Sage's in my Orchestra. Brass section, baritone sax. We were sort of desperate for a third speaker, and I asked the weird orchestra kid one time, and now Pythia and I are stuck with him forever."
