<span style="color: #00BF00">“Ah yes.  Indeed I would be glad for cool air.”</span>Nodding, the Knight did smile and offer his arm to the Lady.  Once they were outdoors, Motto sighed and looked to the stars.  He released Kate’s arm with awkward uncertainty, matters of etiquette were not his strength.<br/><br/><span style="color: #00BF00">“The..elixir is very kind.  I thank you.” </span>Sir Motto hadn’t decided if he would make use of it yet, suffering pains of his deeds felt just and right..perhaps he would offer it to another?  But then he would not honor Lady Kate’s gift.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">".. I hope you are not still upset with me. Tell me how I can make things up to you?"</span><br/><br/><span style="color: #00BF00">“My Lady, I am not upset!  Please think on it no more.  Put your worries aside and feel glad.”</span>He could hear the music and knew it was a slower dance.  One that required couples to remain close for it’s entirety.  He couldn’t help but enjoy Lady Kate’s beauty and the alcohol was taking effect.<span style="color: #00BF00">“Grant me this dance.”</span>He turned to Lady Kate and bowed before holding his arms open to take her.    If she agreed, Sir Motto would hold her close and grin down at her.<span style="color: #00BF00"> “I know not the steps but it seems easy enough.” </span>He would attempt to lead but Sir Motto was a terrible dancer as well as feeling his drink.  Over the balcony they went, the cold night air meeting with Lady Kate’s delicate skin and blowing her hair about before they landed in a bush.<br/><br/>The Knight would do his best to protect her from the fall, his hands flying to take hold of whatever he came in contact with.
