Chapter 2: The Fairy in the Cave
She is on her knees at the edge of a small stream staring into the slow flowing water beneath her. She takes out some herbs from under her áo choàng and lets them fall slowly into the water muttering some words in the language of the Old Religion. The water moves and small circles build. As the little waves vanish and the surface becomes still again, a picture appears.
The sorceress smiles. What she sees pleases her.
He’s leaving. The city is unguarded, the king is weak, a perfect target.
Her tim, trái tim beats a little faster.
bởi the movement of her hand the picture fades and she rises.
“When you’re back you’ll get a surprise, young warlock. I’m looking phía trước, chuyển tiếp to seeing your face thêm than bạn could ever know.
Hiding under her cloak, she starts walking towards the city of Camelot ahead.
~~~
Merlin comes out of his room and almost runs into Gaius who is about to clean his equipment.
“Sorry.” the boy mumbles as he passes his mentor.
“Where are bạn going so fast?” the old physician asks.
Merlin stops and hesitates.
“I have to go somewhere...”
Gaius raises his eyebrows. The younger lowers his head, looking at the ground. He hates lying to Gaius.
“I have to follow Arthur” he finally answers.
Gaius nods in understanding.
“You know what your doing? Be careful.”
Merlin nods and waves goodbye.
He tries to leave the City unseen.
He follows the route Arthur and the other knights, Sir Leon, Sir Lancelot and Sir Gwaine, have taken at a far distance. He has no problem following them.
They are now far away from Camelot and it gets dark. The sun is already descending at the horizon and the knights stop to rest. It is to no advantage to continue the tìm kiếm at night and it is dangerous as well. Merlin thinks about what will happen if they find Morgana.
If she will not cooperate and it comes to a fight he has to intervene. It would be dangerous and maybe he will have to use magic against her.
At dawn the tiếp theo day, they continue their search. Merlin doubts that they will find her within the tiếp theo three days and thinks that they mayl have to stop and return to Camelot.
He has fallen behind, Mất tích in his thoughts when suddenly he sees the small group of men in front of a cave. They have found a camp nearby.
“There must be someone in there” Merlin hears Arthur saying. Arthur takes the lead as the men enter the dark hole that is the cave. Merlin follows them unnoticed.
“Hello? Anyone in here?”
At first there is only the echo of Arthur’s voice and then Merlin hears something moving and a figure appears. As it comes into the light of the sun that shines in through the entrance of the cave all of them stand stunned.
“Morgana!.”
As she realizes who stands in front of her, she is stunned, too. The expression on her face changes from shock to anger.
“What do bạn want? Leave me alone!” she cries.
Arthur takes a step towards her. “We want to bring bạn back.”
“No!” Morgana shouts. “Uther will put me into the dungeons. I will never return to Camelot. I can’t!”
“What about Morgause?” he asks in a soft tone, trying to calm her.
Morgana lowered her head. Her eyes narrow.
“She’s gone. My sister’s dead. I`m all alone now and I will never forgive Uther for what he has done to me and the ones I love.”
“You’re not alone Morgana. We’re here to help you.”
Arthur and the knights turn in surprise as Merlin speaks.
“Merlin what are bạn doing here?!” Arthur bursts out.
“I followed bạn in case bạn needed some help.” he grins.
“You’re a complete idiot!”
Merlin still grins.
“Let me speak to her.”
Arthur raises an eyebrow.
“Merlin?” Morgana looks at him with suspicion.
“How can I trust you? bạn were there when Morgause died, weren’t you?
Did bạn do it?”
“Morgana, please listen” he says, stepping towards her.
“She Chuyện thần tiên ở New York you. She used bạn for her plans. She wanted the power to rule and used your connection to the throne. She used bạn as an ally who trusts her and will carry out her plan for her. She was evil and you’re not Morgana. It was all her fault. I know bạn didn’t want to do all that. bạn felt alone and so it was easy for her to manipulate you. bạn are everything to Uther. You’re his daughter, he will forgive you.”
He notices the tears coming up in her eyes and she sobs quietly.
“I know. She was my sister and I trusted her, I thought she was right. After all that Uther had done, she was the only one who understood me. She was my blood. I finally felt at trang chủ and that I belong somewhere.”
“You belong in Camelot” Merlin says, taking her hand.
“I`m so sorry,” she glances at Arthur for a second. “I thought what i was doing was right. It is all my fault. I believed he,r but she used her magic on me and put me under pressure. I didn`t want to do any harm to bạn hoặc to innocents.”
She sobs again. “Can bạn forgive me? Merlin?”
He looks in her eyes and sees nothing but coldness. Where is the sparkle that had once had been in her eyes?, he thought.
The tears run freely down her face now. He hasn’t seen her like this for a long time and he doesn’t believe a word of what she has just said.
“I will.” he says.
“And what about Uther?” she looks at Arthur again.
“I don’t know.” the prince replies. “But bạn must come with us back to Camelot and convince him that bạn are innocent. He’s in a bad state and will be glad to see you. When he’s recovered again.”
“I hope so.”
“You’re his daughter, he cannot abandon you.”
She nods and turns to Merlin . “I will make it all up to you. I promise.”
They all walk out of the cave back into the bright sunlight.
“Can we really trust her?" Arthur asks Merlin.
Merlin sighs. “I think so”
Lancelot and Gwaine nod in agreement.
Then they start their return, bringing Morgana back. But they don’t know what will await them back in Camelot.
“You’re a liar!”
Morgana shouts at Arthur.
“You bastard! Your no better than your father! I will punish bạn all! You’ll pay for this!”
As they had returned, Arthur had let Morgana be put into the dungeons. Just to be on the an toàn, két an toàn side. Merlin had told him that he didn’t believe a word she said, that she’s still evil and willing to use magic.
She fought hard,cried and screamed.
Arthur makes sure that her prison is well guarded. Merlin hopes that her magic isn’t still too powerful and if she breaks free, it is up to him to stop her.
Arthur goes to visit his father. On the way to his chambers he meets Guinevere. When she sees him she runs towards him and he embraces her.
“I’m glad your back. I heard bạn brought Morgana with you.”
He nods and tells her everything.
“But please, Guinevere,” he touches her face,
Be careful. We cannot trust her yet”
She tilts her head and smiles at him.
“I’ll go and see how my father is.” Arthur says straightening himself a little.
He’s still looking at her. “See bạn then” he smiles back and turns to go.
“Arthur.” Gwen says. He stops and turns to her again.
“I believe your father is still not very well. I’m sorry.”
“Don’t worry too much” he says and leaves her.
In Uther's chambers, Gaius is awaiting him with bad news.
“Can I talk to him?” the young prince asks and Gaius shakes his head.
“Im sorry to have to say that he is getting worse. He’s got a fever and it will not get better.”
“Why is that? What’s wrong with him?
“I don’t know” Gaius admits.
“But if I cannot find the reason soon, he will die.”
Arthur stands there in shock.
“Try” he says quietly.
Gaius nods. “Yes my lord. I’ll do what I can.”
The physician bows and Arthur leaves. In his own room he is Mất tích in his thoughts and the panic from earlier overcomes him again. But it is not the time to worry about his future now. There is still a lot to do, he thinks and goes looking for Merlin to give him some work to do.
Meanwhile Gwen walks down the stairs to the dungeons where her former mistress is imprisoned.
As Morgana sees her maid she smiles.
“Gwen! It’s so nice to see you!”
“Don’t try to fool me Morgana.”
“But Gwen, you’re my friend. Haven’t I always been good to you?”
“You tried to kill me!” Gwen shouts at her.
“That’s not true. Believe me please. Tell Arthur he should set me free. Help me. Please”
“Why should I?”
“You owe me your loyalty at least.” Morgana says with less patience in her voice.
“My loyalty is to Arthur. And he wants bạn to stay here.” Gwen says coldly.
“You betrayed me. I thought men shouldn’t come between best friends.”
“We aren’t best Những người bạn anymore.”
“I can see that.” Morgana sighs sadly.
Then she smiles.
“I heard Uther isn’t well. Good. Whoever is responsible for this, I hope he hoặc she will succeed.
“You’re evil!” Gwen says with disgust in her voice. “You’re worse than him.”
With these words she turns on her heels, passing the guards and leaves the dungeons.
“We’ll see who is still standing in the end.” Morgana says and smirks.
