No Good Deed
By Hannah Curbishley
Preface- No Good Deed
Nimeuh was a powerful sorceress who learnt it hard way that No Good Deed go unpunished. With all of her power she could never have predict the punishment and consequences of her good deed. As she watched the people she knew being killed she wished she had never done that simple good deed. She wished she had never blessed Uther Pendragon with the son he craved because by doing this Uther's Wife, Ygraine, had died giving birth to baby Arthur Pendragon and Uther had sworn to destroy all of those who practised magic. Nimeuh had no idea that to create a life a life must be taken, she did not fully understand the laws of Magic but as the fires raged and the death piercing screams grew louder Nimeuh now fully understood the laws of Magic. She pulled the hood of her cloak to hide her face as she road away from Camelot, she knew that she would get revenge on Uther Pendragon for the murder of her people. She had given him the son he graved and he had given her blood shed in return. No Good Deed goes unpunished, Nimeuh now knew this to well as the rain washed away the blood from Camelot's stone courtyard. Uther Pendragon held his new born son Arthur in his arms, mourning the lose of his wife. He swore he'd wipe Magic from Camelot, that he would get revenge for his wife's death. No Good Deed goes unpunished. And from a good deed came life, lose, pain, blood shed and revenge. Revenge on both sides. And the blood shed would fuel the hatred and revenge that Uther and Nimeuh both wanted.
