Once upon a time, long ago, I was refused to be Gunnora's consort in Crown Tourney...because we are the same gender.  Its not that I'm unworthy or was then even.  According to the laws in force at that time, I was not allowed to be Gunnora's consort.   Now if had been your consort, Arthur, or Eule's (who Gunnora ended up fighting for at that time) or Sir Kief's or Master Daniel or Sir Pendaren, etc., it would have been allowed.  But as my beloved has already said here,  "I" am "her" inspiration as she is also mine.  Why should Gunnora and I have to pretend something that is not the truth?  Its not like she wouldn't have been eliminated in the first round anyway.

So yeah, I guess I can say, I was found to be undesirable.
