The lake is cursed.

Da tell her to keep her wits about her, milk the cows, do not stop to pick the wildflowers, and get home before the light dies — but she's young. She's full of vibrancy and defiance, and Freya hears a young woman crying as she's halfway through picking a bouquet to bring home with her.

Many drapes of gold-shimmer material pools about her, as if merging with the gem-dark waters, and the eyes of the Fae are also shimmering — shimmering red. Like glowing, distant sunset-sky, like a rose's petals.

She feels calm, numb and brimming in euphoria.

Freya stiffly walks on to the lake's edge, her toes squishing in the dark, watery soil, opening her arms wide.

BBC Merlin isn't mine. I love rarepair! I love BBC MERLIN femslash! I had to combine them! Any thoughts/comments would be so so appreciated! Today's official Femslash February prompt is "Safe" (which I decided to make THE OPPOSITE FEELING) and my secondary challenge prompt was "Raise Hell" eeee!
