Word came to him that the godlings had dithered around enough. It was time for them to go home and get on with it. Right! Nigel had his orders and he was nothing if not efficient.

He took the initiative to put into play Evacuation Protocol #57. Everything in his guests' rooms suddenly ceased to work. Lights went out. Televisions and computers turned off on their own. Even the water taps stopped functioning, and all of it suddenly. If they were outside of their room their key no longer opened doors, except for those of the elevator bay and then the elevators would take them only to the lobby.

He straightening the cap on his head, smoothed the lapels of his jacket then brushed imaginary lint from his sleeves. He was prepared for the ensuing confrontations.

After his intense meeting with Nimue, Asclepius, and Hades, Gawain needed some time to reflect. He had, after all, usurped his uncle's role and "knighted" a man. Never mind the fact that the man he knighted was from a different pantheon, the experience of acting on behalf of Arthur felt positively surreal to Gawain. He needed to clear his mind, and a walk through the hotel's labyrinthine hallways seemed the right way to do so.

Fortunately Gawain was in a first floor hallway when the power went out. At this point not in the least surprised by the sudden darkness, he felt his way back to the lobby and found Nigel at the front desk.

"So, Nigel, what's next on the mythological mystery menu?"

Nigel gave the knight a bland smile. "Leaving." The smile remained in place as he held out his hand, palm up. "Your key, please."

He handed over the key and said, somewhat cautiously, "Well, thank you for an interesting evening and sojourn."

His fingers wrapped around the key one at a time, he smiled then turned to replace it in the proper letterbox.

"You may wait with the young lady there."
