It was a beautiful day in Camelot. The sun was shining, and the castle had no threats placed on them in a while. All was quiet.

Brynn was in bed when she heard a knock. "Who is it?"

"Gwen."

"Oh, come in!" said Brynn.

Gwen and Brynn had become good friends.

"Flowers milady, from Sir Percival." Said Gwen smiling.

However, Brynn was not excited. This was the third time he sent flowers. He was a kindly man but she had feelings for Merlin.

"What's wrong?" said Gwen.

"Percival's intentions are sweet, but my heart favors another." Said Brynn with a frustrated sigh.

"Merlin?" said Gwen with a grin.

"Yes. I just do not wish to hurt Sir Percival's feelings."

"Being honest is hard, but it is the right thing to do."

"Gwen, you are so kind. I am glad I have gotten to know you."

Gwen smiled and Brynn returned it. She then went behind the changing screen. As Brynn changed Gwen swapped the clothes. Brynn swallowed. How in the world could she be honest to Percival without hurting him? And dare she admit her feelings to Merlin? He would laugh.

She was interrupted from her thoughts by another knock.

"I will answer it." Said Gwen as Brynn finished dressing.

Brynn stepped out from behind the screen. This time it was Merlin. She flushed. After a second of regaining herself, she noticed his face was grim.

"What it is?" inquired Gwen, concerned.

"Brynn, I have a letter for you. It's about Tomos."

Gwen looked at Brynn. Without hesitation, Brynn accepted the letter from Merlin. She quickly scanned its contents and stared at her two friends, her expression blank.

"Tomos has been captured."
