Galahad smiles as he listens to Mordred gush about his fiancé and watches his face flush with happiness. The version of the young man standing before him that he knows is reserved and seems unhappy with his lot in Camelot most of the time. Seeing that his future self ends up happy in this way is reassuring and a pleasure.

"Thank you, Mordred. That's what I believe, too; That we may face challenges and setbacks in life, but that Heaven does love us as we are. I believe that clarity will come for me when I have earned it." He has no idea what that might mean for him, but Galahad resolved long ago to be patient with such matters.

"There is one thing about God and the divine that may help you to know, though," Galahad starts to explain, after a short hesitation. "Some of the peoples who walk this place have very different experiences of God. They will undoubtedly quarrel with you or your fiancé over the nature of the divine if they hear words like those you've just said to me." His own process of finding that particular detail out ended up rocky in more ways than one, so why not prepare someone new just in case?
