But Percival had a feeling that wasn't quite what Yvain meant, even if he was unsure what that meaning exactly was. There were still so many things he struggled to understand, subtleties in the way people spoke that went over his head. As much as he adored his mother there was a small, bitter part of him that wished she had not sheltered him quite so much. Even if it did mean Sir Gareth wouldn't have given him the somewhat affectionate moniker of "rocks-for-brains".
Still, he smiled up at the older man for once from his seat on the grass.
It was a different view, for certain.

"What sort of lines are you speaking of, specifically? Maybe they're just ones you've imposed on yourself without knowing any better. You never know, until you talk about it to someone else!"

Funny how that worked out.
