Owen Davies has prayer meeting tonight, so it is a good night for Bran to come to Milliways. Bran sits on his bed, harp on his lap, and plays the high strange song that has always opened the Milliways door for him. When he reaches the bar, Bran finds a table where he can sit and observe the crowd, his back to the wall.

A little while later, Bran is surprised to hear the same high music beginning to play near the front door. Owen, still dressed for chapel in his second-best suit, his hair neatly combed back, walks into the bar.

Strangers can be dangerous any week, Bran, but he smiles nonetheless.

"Wales? Can't say as I've heard of Clwyd Farm, but I was there for Uni."

"Cardiff. Didn't finish up, but I've some friends still there. Though you're from a bit before my time by twenty some years."

"What're the chances of that?"

Adam looks quite honestly floored.

"D'you mind?"

He points at the empty seat across from Bran.

He flushes a little, the somewhat embarrassed look of someone who spent the majority of his time at uni not studying.

"S'nothing like where I grew up. All the buildings, and the castle. I mean, s'not like London, but compared to Tadfield, it was great."

"Small enough. Not a farming village or anything like that. But just about the best place for a boy to grow up."

And if Adam had something to do with that? Well, it's not something Bran needs to know right at the moment, after all.

"Kind of place where you know everybody."

A light shrug, there, and a distracted smile.

"A handful of times, I guess. Did a bit of a better job making this my home, for a while."

Wise boy, that Bran. Though I'd bet he and Adam could have some interesting conversations about fathers.

"It's quite a good one, I've found. And most of my friends come here, as well as some of my family."

His face says that this second one is, perhaps, not always for the best.

"I've not been around quite as often lately, but I don't remember seeing you before."

"That must be nice. Have they been here that long, as well? I've been coming almost two years now, but, as I said, not nearly so often lately."

"In relation to him? So, what, he's your great great great great grandfather or something?"

. . . right. Adam raises an eyebrow.

"How do you mean, games?"

"I know him fairly well, and his mother, too."

Just thinking about grown Mordred and the baby Mordred, here at the bar, makes his head hurt.

"We're... friends. Of a sort."

Of the type that sometimes like to try and beat each other to death.
