Albion 4: Fear

This is my 4th story for the Albion series. It's based off of Another's Sorrow. I'll update when I can.

One day, Merlin was in the woods. He was picking herbs when a sorceress used magic and tried to choke.

"Do as I say or I'll kill everyone you love in front of you." The sorceress ordered. Merlin nodded. The sorceress released Merlin. Merlin collapsed onto his side. "My name is Mary. Morgana was my niece."

"What do you want?" Merlin croaked.

"You'll act as if you were attack by Saxons. You will not speak unless I say you can. Understood?"

"What do you want?"

"To destroy Nemeth."

Then Mary changed into a man.

"I am only your servant. Nothing more." Mary said. "One wrong move and your family dies. AM I clear?"

"Yes." Merlin answered. Then Mary snapped her fingers. A man appeared by her side.

"Torture him."

The man did. He hurt Merlin any way he could. Several minutes later, when the man was done torturing Merlin, he threw Merlin into a lake and then dragged him out.

"You may go. I'll do the rest." Mary sighed. Then the man left. Mary use magic and made 2 horses appear. Mary used magic and put visions into Merlin's head. When it was over, Merlin was in shock. "Get on the horse."

Merlin got onto the horse. Mary got on her horse. They went to Nemeth. When they got to Nemeth a guard came out. Rodor was behind him. It was dark. They couldn't see Merlin or Mary's faces.

"Stop. Tell me who you are." The guard ordered. Merlin got off his horse.

"I'm Merlin." Merlin greeted before he felt faint. Mary got off the horse and went to Merlin.

"My lord, are you ok?" Mary said in her man form. Rodor went to Merlin just as he collapsed.

"Guard, get the court physician." Rodor ordered as he carried Merlin to one of the guest chambers.
