Blind Faith
Prismark1028 May 2021
A touch of Pygmalion as Gabrielle learns how to be a Queen.

She has been kidnapped and is forced to marry a King of a small kingdom. A statue of him show that the King might well have a big lunchbox.

Gabrielle struggles to curtsy and have that royal decorum. She is not exactly Miss Congeniality.

The big problem is that the King is dead. The dastardly bad guys with their archaic and weird rules of succession want Gabarille to be married to the dead King and then both have a sudden and tragic deaths.

Xena would come to the rescue but she has been temporarily blinded by sumac oil while fighting a brattish warrior called Palemon. He wants to defeat Xena in a fair fight to makes his reputation as a warrior. It was Palemon who kidnapped Gabrielle.

Xena did not seem to be so destabilised by her blindness, it was just a minor inconvenience.

Gabrielle story was stupid but she was a knockout in that dress. If that elderly King was alive and saw her in that dress, he would have died of a seizure.
