by Thepinkhouseowner

Epilogue

I watched as the sun began to set on the horizon. It was the end of another day, but a new age was beginning. The air was moving with a light breeze; it was almost relaxing. I heard Arthur come up behind me, and shivered in pleasure as he wrapped his arms around me.

'It's over,' he whispered in my ear. 'It's finally over. We can stop worrying now…'

I smiled and leant back against his chain-mail covered chest. 'Yeah. For now.'

He pulled away slightly, frowning. 'What do you mean, for now?'

I turned to look at him. 'He'll be back, won't he? He'll want revenge on what we did… he'll want revenge on Camelot.'

'I suppose. But he won't attack tonight, so come back inside and enjoy the celebrations. We've got all the time in the world to worry about Cenred. Tonight… we can just enjoy the peace.'

I paused. 'All right, then. Let's get back inside it's getting rather chilly.'

And we walked back into the castle- our castle- to enjoy the last few hours of the day with the people I loved.
