Chapter one
The usual rapid chatter and bright laughter of the students at Trinity College surrounded Professor Sydney Fox as she strode elegantly towards the old wooden door of the ancient studies department. Hoisting her heaving bag further onto her shoulder she heard two familiar voices gradually rising within the room. Sighing and amusedly rolling her eyes she twisted the knob and pushed open the door onto the regular battleground of Nigel and Claudia's office space. Seated on opposite sides of the room Sydney watched as her teaching assistant and secretary did battle among chaotic bombsite of office equipment and dusty, historical books and parchments.
"- all I did was open a crossword book and you leap down my throat, honestly! Not all of us have to go to a club and get smashed to have a good time!"
"Your idea of a good time is a crossword puzzle? Like, my God, Nigel, your problem is obviously worse than I thought!"
"Problem? Problem? I don't have a problem, just because I don't want to go 'paint the town red' looking like Cindy goes to Hollywood!"
"How dare you, I do not look like a child's play doll! I'll have you know that is an insult to women. Now you take that back, Bailey, or."
"Okaaay, I think I'll put a stop to this now, before it turns ugly!"
"Syd!" the bickering stopped instantly as the two jumped and simultaneously whipped around to see their boss looking at them with a teasing expression on her pretty, sun-tanned face.
"Any messages, Claudia?"
"Messages?.Oh, right, um, some guy called from England saying he wanted to talk to Nigel about some sword or other and if you would contribute to the search.quest.thing." Sydney turned around to glance curiously at Nigel.
"Nigel, lets go to my office and you can tell me exactly who this 'guy' is and what he wants with us," saying that she turned and stepped into the adjoining room with Nigel behind her. Almost catching a glimpse of Claudia's underwear as she bent over in a shocking pink micro-mini skirt to pick up a fallen nail file. "OK Nige', spill the secret, what's this sword all about?"
"Well, I know this probably seems a bit farfetched, but we think we may have found the means to discover the sword of Sir Galahad!"
